100th Day Fun!

We celebrated 100th day in style at Chadron Primary School.  Walking around the building you could see ties, headbands, activities, and many other celebrations to commemorate the 100th day of school.  We are 100 days smarter, kinder, safer, more respectful, and more responsible.  We are so proud of our students - keep up the GREAT work!

CSC Football Players and Parents help with Read Naturally Lab

Members of the Chadron State College Football Team have been volunteering their time to help out in our Read Naturally Lab.  These gentlemen visit our Primary Building every week to listen to our kindergarten students read and assist them in reading fluency and comprehension.  We also have a dedicated set of parents who volunteer their time as well.  Thank you Parents, Coach Larson, and CSC Football!

NO SCHOOL (Tuesday 1/24) - SNOW DAY

NO SCHOOL for Chadron Public Schools Tuesday (Jan. 24th) due to inclement weather.  Stay home, stay safe, read a great book, work on some math facts, and PLAY!!

First Grade Readers

What a delight to have a group of first grade readers share with me some of their new vocabulary.  These words are quite incredible when you consider these kiddos are 6 & 7 years old!!  We are so excited about our new Wonders Reading curriculum and how much progress our students are making. Here are the first graders rocking the vocabulary cards and definitions in my office:  splendid, special, relief, appearance, predicament, determined, and feature.  WOWZA!!

Cardinals Committed

The Primary Building would like to thank Mr. Mack and the Cardinals Committed group from the high school who visited our lunchroom.  These high school students continue to make good choices and set such an amazing example for our little people.  We get so thrilled to have them visit and the connections they make with our students is long lasting.  Thanks again for coming over, we look forward to your next visit!!

Martin Luther King Jr. March

Our children were fortunate to be a part of Chadron State College's annual Martin Luther King Jr. March on Monday, January 16, 2017.  Our students joined with students from CSC, Job Corps, Intermediate, Middle, and High schools on a march up to the CSC Chicoine Center where Dr. David Nesheim and other organizers put on an outstanding program.  We heard from our Superintendent of Schools, as well as other speakers and singers from the Middle and High Schools along with guest speakers from Colorado.  We would like to thank Dr.

Noon Dismissal

Please remember that this Friday (1/20) we will have a 12:00 p.m. dismissal.  We do NOT have Just For Kids afterschool programming on Fridays and our teachers have meetings to attend early so please pick your children up promptly.  Because of the earlier dismissal we also have an altered lunch schedule:

Kindergarten:  11:00-11:30 a.m.
2nd Grade:  11:30-11:57 a.m.

Perfect Attendance

These students had Perfect Attendance for the entire 1st Semester of school.  Thank you to all of the families that make this possible.  Being in school and on time is so important for student growth and learning and these students have proven that.  Congratulations on a job well done kiddos, keep up the good work!
