This month has been a reflection of the opportunities, excellence, and positive school culture we strive to provide every day at Chesnee Elementary School. We proudly celebrated our rating on the South Carolina School Report Card with a special “Excellent Day”. We took the time to recognize the hard work and dedication of our teachers and students.

Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders participated in our annual Career Fair. This year was bigger and better than ever before. Our Champs had the opportunity to explore a wide variety of careers and learn directly from professionals representing organizations such as Swofford Career Center, Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Office, Duke Energy, Milliken, Spartanburg Regional (pharmacy and nursing) and so many others. We are grateful for so many community partners for their time and investing in our students at a young age.

Recently students enjoyed a fun-filled first nine weeks celebration as a reward for demonstrating our schoolwide PBIS expectations. All grade levels celebrated with a Fall Festival. Students enjoyed games including; bobbing for apples, candy corn ring toss, face painting, connect four, “apple cider”, and more. 

We are incredibly proud of our students and staff and so thankful for the families, community partners, and school board members who support our work. It takes a village to help our children succeed, and we are grateful to be part of a community that believes in our Champs.
