Chadron Primary School

Primary Families, please remember this Friday, May 5th there will be NO SCHOOL for our current Kindergarten students.  This is the date our incoming Kindergarten students will visit for their "bump up" day.  Thank you!

The second graders at Chadron Primary hosted a multicultural event this last week as a culminating activity to their multicultural project.  The students in each of the four classrooms split into groups and researched various countries.  They created tri-fold presentations including postcards, important information about the countries, and landmarks as well as salt dough maps of the countries.  The students also brought food from the various countries and enjoyed trying different cuisine.

International Field Trip without Leaving the Building
The second graders helped create an international travel experience for first graders within our building.  Working in groups, second graders were assigned a country and conducted research.  There was a lot that went into the researching.  Students asked questions and located answers.  Students looked for information about language, clothing, food, holidays, the national flag and other interesting facts.  Their final projects consisted of a tri-fold display and salt dough maps.

Students from Chadron Primary School partnered with Keep Chadron Beautiful to learn about recycling and keeping our community clean.  Classrooms were given missions to promote environmental care and the culminating activity was to clean up around the school buildings.  Thank you Keep Chadron Beautiful for sponsoring these activities and educating our students about the care of Earth.

We will be hosting a Native American Parent Meeting Tuesday, May 9, 2017.  The meeting will be held in the Central Office of Chadron Public Schools and will begin at 3:30 p.m.  We look forward to visiting with you about the education of our Native American students.

Once again Mrs. Dickerson and her music classes did an AMAZING job of performing.  The first and second graders delighted the audience with their Spring Music Program on April 11th.  The first grade classes did their program about flowers and the second grade classes featured all different types of bugs.  The students worked so hard on memorizing lines and songs and should be congratulated on a job well done.  A huge thank you to all of the work Mrs. Dickerson and her students put into this program as well as the classroom teachers, paraprofessionals, Mrs.

Chadron State College hosted their annual Challenge Days for our elementary students.  CSC college students host a variety of stations and games that get kids moving and our Primary students always have such a great time.  We cannot thank everyone involved with the planning of this wonderful event and we look forward to many more activities that bring our schools together.
