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

State opens FCAT hotline for parents

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The first ever FCAT hotline is now available to parents who have questions about their children's scores. The call center is a response to last week's surprisingly low FCAT reading results and the outrage from parents. Kelly Sealy, a hotline operator, says a lot of callers are just looking to voice their frustrations. The hotline is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday. The number is (866) 507-1109.

 


We will be participating in Scholastic's Read for the World Record summer reading program this year. It is a free on-line program where students record the minutes they have read from now until August 31 on www.scholastic.com/summer If we are one of the top 20 schools to read the most minutes, then Chaffee Trail will be featured in the 2013 World Record book!!!
