"In
all the world there is no
other child exactly like you.
In the millions of years that have passed, there has never been another child like you.
You may become a Shakespeare,
a Michelangelo, a Beethoven.
You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel."
- Pablo Casals
The Staff and Students of the Chatham Middle School as well as the greater educational community recognize early adolescence not only as a period of transition for intellectual, educational and physical development, but also a period for personal and social growth.
