Chets Creek Families are Amazing!

There has been a severe decrease in supply money this year in all schools in Duval County. After explaining our needs to the parents at Orientation, one parent came through with flying colors! It was Dave Ranney, a father of a student in Ms.Launey's homeroom. The teachers came upstairs after our faculty meeting to discover a massive, overflowing box of white binders (exactly what we had asked for). Mrs.Lopez and Ms.Launey were jumping for joy (you know you are a true teacher when school supplies make you jump and scream!). The binders were supplied by a business that no longer needed them and Mr.Ranney found them the perfect home. We thank the Ranney family so much for their extra help and support in our time of need.

What an exciting surprise! It sounds like you have a group of great parents and kids and now you'll be able to get them super organized.

After the dust settles from your first day, this would be a great place to keep us, the parents, informed of any additional supplies your classrooms may need.

Stephanie,
That is a great idea. I know we were planning on putting it in our newsletter but this would be a great spot too.

Stephanie,
What an amazing parent you are! Thank you so much for your support and concern for our students. We need parents like you who understand the needs of our classrooms. It was so good meeting with you and getting to know what wonderful parents Bobby has.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Lopez
