Thank You
I want to thank everyone for taking the time to fill out the Family survey sent by Great Hearts. I now have the results. I have read every single comment, and want to thank you for being specific in your feedback in how good our teachers are, and areas where they can improve. As promised, that data is already being analyzed as part of each teacher's overall performance and tied to their end of the year bonuses. Your feedback on all other aspects of the school, including my leadership, will be reviewed by myself and the leadership team here at Archway Chandler to look for common themes and areas for growth, which will lead us to key initiatives for the next school year. I want you to know that your voice matters, and that I appreciate your overwhelming response.

Birthday Snack Reminder
Just a reminder that when it is your child's birthday there are restrictions on what can be brought in as a treat for the class as well as on visitors. Please do not send sugar-laden treats like donuts, cookies, and cupcakes. For suitable alternatives, please see the policy written here. The treats should be dropped off at the front desk where they will be delivered to the classroom at a time that is convenient for the teacher to minimize loss of instructional time.

These etched pavers are positioned along the walkway lining the field, setting in stone your memories at Archway Chandler. Bricks can be purchased here, or with the form on the table in the front office. Questions?

The Campbell's Soup Labels for Education program is coming to an end! Parents, please send in any Campbell's labels you have sitting around your home by Friday, May 19th. This is the perfect opportunity to clean out your pantry and pull off any labels on previously purchased canned foods! The more points we bank, the more fun things we will be able to redeem for use by the school and the PSO.
Thanks to everyone who has participated in the Labels for Education program in the past. We have used these points for classroom prizes and playground equipment. And we couldn't have done this without your help!
