2011-2012: Growing Great Minds!

Welcome to Chaffee Trail Elementary School!  Our goal is to provide your child with a 21st century education embedding technology into instruction.  Our students today are global learners so it is of the utmost importance to teach your child how to become an independent learner.  A child’s elementary educational experience sets the tone for establishing a pattern of life-long learning.  Here at Chaffee Trail our goal is to establish that effective pattern so that your child will experience success at all levels throughout life.  We welcome you as a part of our family and encourage you to participate in your child’s education with us. Beverly Walker, Principal
