Message from the Principal

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

We were thrilled to see all of our students running around in the sunshine today!  It gives us excitement that Spring has finally arrived. Please be sure to stay connected as we have a very busy end of the year!

Bateman Core Values
We want all of our students at Bateman to lead a virtuous life!  Please help us choose what words we will instill in each of our children.  We want your voice to be heard in this decision so please let us know by taking the Bateman Core Values Survey!

Boostin' for Bateman Spring Fling
May is here, which means our annual Spring Fling and Silent Auction fundraiser is right around the corner and we need your support! Come Eat, Drink, and Be Bateman on May 10th at Michelle's Ballroom. Please join the Bateman Boosters and our school community to celebrate our students and raise money for our wonderful school.  This is your big opportunity to support everything it means to #BeBateman! Tickets are available for purchase online via https://eatdrinkandbebateman.bpt.me. All donations directly benefit each and every one of our students.

PreK Registration is Now Open!
Please help us spread the word that PreK Registration opened April 30th!  Anyone interested in PreK, please register at chicagoearlylearning.org. The online application consists of 3-simple steps:

Choose Kind Challenge
All Month!


All year, we have been encouraging all of our students to #ChooseKind! Every morning, students will hear an extra challenge to show their kindness in different ways and students are recognized during afternoon announcements.  We received so much positive feedback that we would like to see it go through the end of the year but we need YOUR help!  If you have a daily challenge you would like to see our students complete to #choosekind, please let us know by filling out this form!
