Chatham Central School District - Everyone Everyday

STEAM on stage(TM), in collaboration with PS21, is hosting a concert on Saturday, September 26 at PS21 to benefit the Chatham High School Global Science Research Team! Composer, pianist, and music educator Tim Dunne will perform in concert alongside CHS' scholar-musicians. PS21 has graciously donated their space, staff, and materials to help showcase the incredible science research the team is conducting and celebrate their musical talents as they raise funds to support the students' involvement in the South Korean Exchange Program this November. The event starts at 2:00 p.m. with a meet and mocktail hour, followed by the concert from 3:00-4:00 p.m. The concert is free but donations will be accepted. Checks can be made payable to Chatham Central School with S. Korea Exchange in the memo line. We hope to see you there!

CMS New Student Orientation has been rescheduled to Tuesday, September 1, 10:00am in the Middle School Library. This is for CMS students who are new to the district. You will see your schedule, learn about many aspects of the Middle School, and meet other students.

Sign up reminder: we are fast approaching the deadline to finalize our Fall athletic rosters. Currently, registration numbers are low for Girls JV Soccer, Boys JV Soccer, and Girls Modified Soccer.

Decisions regarding whether we can field these teams will be finalized within the next two weeks. Once these decisions are communicated to the league, they will be final. (Please note: If we do not have enough players for a JV soccer team, we will transition to a Mod 9 team structure.)

If your student plans to play this fall but has not yet registered, please sign them up immediately so we can preserve these teams' season. Register at https://students.arbitersports.com/organizations/chatham-athletics
