I have had my daughte attending chapman Hills for going on 3 years . The Principal has done a wonderful job with the teachers and students . If she has any concerns they don't hesitate to call and discuss and try to find a solution , to help my child . With all the buget crisis and being over worked the school is doing the best they can . Parents need to step up and look up what there children r learning and be able to help them r go to school and talk to the teacher and have them help them understand ! Rather then complain and write about it . It's our responsability to teach r kids the teacher are there to help us ! That's what parents need to remember !
Chapman Hill Elementary is truly a wonderful school. We have 3 children attending and are pleased with the warm and welcoming atmosphere that is evident throughout the school. We have been impressed by the dedication of the teachers. They have gone above and beyond our expecatations in presenting an inspiring curriculum that challenges our children daily. Our children need to have teachers that are caring, innovative, and have high expectations for all the students. This school continues to impress us.
I am very conconcerned about both the new math program which seems ponderous and confusing. I suspect the teachers do not adequately understand the program and are not spending enough time with students to ensure basic understanding. I think parental involvement is necessary and important. My wife regularly volunteers at the school and we both assist with our child's homework. But, I do feel that the quantity of homework is excessive. For example, the recent Salem history workbook assignment was unrealistic in the amount of effort required on parent & child. Again, my impression is that this is replacing in-class work. We are considering moving our child to a private school, which saddens me.
Chapman Hill had a great community of teachers and parents, but has suffered greatly this academic year under an incompetent principal that has allowed divisiveness and less than professional behavior among the teachers.
