Vegetable Garden plots are coming to the Gateway Garden! The 2009 Summer Expansion project for the Gateway Garden will include the addition of 18 ten foot by ten foot garden plots. 

The Garden Committee is taking reservations now.

Chappell School is beginning to accept pre-enrollment forms for the 2009-10 CPS “Preschool for All” program. Students who will be three before September 1, 2009 are eligible. We are happy to announce a series of open houses to introduce the program to newcomers! Each open house will showcase a different aspect of the CPS “PreSchool For All” program. No appointments are necessary and both parents and potential students, ages 2-4, are invited to attend!

The first open house will take place on Wednesday, April 1 (11 a.m. – noon). It will be a “Meet and Greet” and students will have the opportunity to explore both Pre-K classrooms while their parents get information about curriculum and registration.

The second open house will take place on Friday, April 24 (9:30-10:30 a.m.). Children are invited to take part in sample activities, including story time, science, arts and crafts and music with Chappell’s Pre-K staff.

The third open house, May 15 (9:30-10:30 a.m.) will focus on music and movement, as well as gross motor activities for children. Parents must remain with students and are encouraged to bring any questions to the teachers at these times. Please share this important information with your friends, neighbors and family members!
