Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

Students are all diving in to their Quarter 2 units and are eager to continue making progress towards their academic goals. Our students, educators, and families have come together in several ways throughout the past few weeks. We have much to celebrate as a community!

  • On Thursday and Friday of last week, we honored all students who exemplified our Quarter 1 Core Value of being Empowered! Students celebrated our Core Values Champions by recognizing those who have gone above and beyond to empower others. Look out for our Core Values Champions for Quarter 2 who are choosing to be Inclusive!
          

  • Educators have brought in new arts partnerships for our Kindergarteners, 2nd Graders, and Eighth Graders with Lyric Opera and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Students will have an added arts integration experience working with teaching artists from some of Chicago's finest institutions!
     
  • Our community showed up over 1200 strong on Saturday for BOOOsterfest to celebrate as one Bateman Family. Thank you for all who attended, volunteered, and coordinated to make it a success! Click below to take a peek at the fun!

                              


Please remember that classes begin at 8:15am and all students need to be ready for instruction. It is important for all families to plan ahead and make an effort to allow children time to transition to their classrooms. Doors open at 8:05am. We look forward to seeing all of our students on time and ready to learn next week!

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Warm regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper
