Welcome Back WAS families! We are especially excited to welcome all of our kindergartners for the full day! Have a great school year!
Yesterday students and staff members joined together with law enforcement to support Special Olympics in the annual Torch Run. Starting at Southern Boulevard School, runners followed a route that passed all Chatham schools. We were excited to welcome students back to the sidelines this year to cheer the runners on as they passed each school.
School closed tomorrow, May 23, Friday, May 24, and Monday May 27. Delayed opening on Tuesday, May 28th. Enjoy the long weekend!!
