Day of Awesomeness

The Day of Awesomeness has been rescheduled for Thursday, November 4th. This is a special activity that some of our students earned as a prize for collecting $60 during our Step It Up Fundraiser from last month. The Day of Awesomeness will include 7 stations of inflatables, a DJ Dance Party, and the Prize Tent for students who have $120 or more in donations.

Here are some items students need to bring:

• Socks - Students need to bring an extra pair of socks. Students may not wear their shoes on the inflatables. Socks ARE REQUIRED for the event. NO SOCKS, no inflatables.
• Water - Students should bring a water bottle.
• Backpacks - Students should bring their backpacks out to the event – This way they have a place for their water bottle. If they earn prizes from the prize tent, they will have a place to put them.

Chilton Core Values

Chilton's November/December Core Value is Gratitude.  At Chilton: 

We believe that true success lies in having appreciation for all things: the things we have, the people who impact our lives, and the experiences we have and create. When we express gratitude for even the smallest of details, we enhance our own lives and inspire others to enrich theirs as well.

Please talk with your child about what gratitude means to your family.
