Chadron Primary School

We look forward to our upcoming Red Ribbon Week, we use this week to educate our students about the dangers of drugs.  Each day of the week has a different theme and the children (and teachers) enjoy dressing up in honor of the day.  The days are as follows:

Monday - "Put a scare on drugs" : Bring your costume to dress up for the afternoon parties

Tuesday - "You'd be crazy to do drugs" :  Wear crazy socks and crazy hair

Wednesday - "Jump away from drugs" :  Wear red and your jumping shoes - it is also Jump Rope for Heart Day (CSC - PAC Center 3:45-5:15p.m.)

 The Chadron State Volleyball team hosted a "Dig Pink" poster contest at Chadron Primary School.  The winning classes were treated to a volleyball game, signed volleyball, and a chance to visit with the CSC volleyball players.  Thank you Chadron State College for your involvement in our public schools and Congratulations to Mrs. Landreth, Mrs. Ferguson, and Mrs. Page's classes for winning for each of their divisions.

 We look forward to visiting with you all at our upcoming Parent/Teacher Conferences.  Please remember that on Monday (October 24th) and Tuesday (October 25th) we have 1:30p.m. dismissals in order to accommodate conferences.  Monday's conferences are by scheduled appointments from 2:30-4:30p.m. and will be held in the individual teacher's classrooms while Tuesday's conferences will be an open format in the gym from 3:00-7:00p.m.  If you have not yet scheduled your Monday conference we still have a few spots left so please call the office to check time slots available.

Chadron Primary School would like to send a HUGE THANK YOU to the Chadron Volunteer Fire Department for coming to our school during Fire Prevention Week.  The students were able to visit with the firefighters and learn about the vehicles, equipment, and fire safety.  This year's theme of "Check the Date, Don't Wait" was to encourage families to check smoke detectors in homes!!!  The students learned the importance of knowing safe ways to exit their homes and we encourage all families to have an exit plan and meeting spot in case of fires.

On Friday Mrs. Smith brought some 7th Grade readers to the Primary building to read to our Kindergarten students.  Our children were thrilled to have the "big kid" readers join our classes and it is so much fun for our teachers to watch former students excelling!!  Thank you to Mrs. Smith and the 7th graders for making our day so special!  We look forward to having you visit again.

Our September Cardinals of the Month celebrated in the teachers lounge by having breakfast with Mrs. Uhing!  We are so very proud of these students who exhibit qualities of kind, caring cardinals by following our Cardinal Rules!!  Congratulations kiddos!

The Chadron Primary Family would like to give a HUGE shout out to Jeanne Mohr.  She designed our new Chadron Primary Logo and we are so anxious to use it on so many things throughout our school.  Thanks again Jeanne, your talent is AMAZING and we appreciate how much you still give back to our schools!!

Chadron Primary School is happy to announce our annual "Battle of the BOX TOP$".  Classrooms compete to see which one can bring in the most boxtops throughout the month of October.  The winning class receives a treat from Mrs. Uhing and our school benefits by turning those boxtops into bucks at the end of the year.  We have been able to purchase playground balls and equipment with the money we receive from this fantastic program.  Please bring your boxtops in bags of 50 or send them with a student you know from the Primary building prior to October 31st.
