Schools to Watch

If you haven’t heard the great news, Chandler’s School was selected as a 2010 School to Watch. Our middle school teachers and students are very proud to receive this honor. Schools across the nation that are designated a School to Watch are academically excellent, are sensitive to adolescent needs, they have highly qualified teachers and have resources they need to support learning. We hope you will join us on April 14th at 9:30am for the official presentation of the award by the Kentucky Commissioner of Education. We will have more details to follow soon.

Preschool Screenings and Transitions

There will be a preschool transition meeting at LCHS at 6pm March 11. There will also be screenings held on March 19th and 26th by appointment only. You will need to schedule these appointments through the Logan County Central Office. Contact Jane Wilkins at 726-2436. By attending these it will help you to determine if your child can attend preschool next fall. It is very important that you call to set up an appointment if you wish to determine if your child is eligible to attend.

Finishing Off a Winning Season

We wrapped up the basketball season with a Sports and Academic Reception on March 2nd. Members of the girls and boys basketball team, cheerleaders, and Academic Team members were recognized for their participation and achievements for the season. We are especially proud of the Middle School Boy's Basketball team which were the county champs!!

McTeacher Night

Thank you for everyone's support at McTeacher Night. Due to your support, the PTO and school raised $500. Mrs. Elm's class won the participation prize for the most students redeeming their french fry coupon. Each child in the class will receive a free Happy Meal and Mrs. Elms was given a crate of school supplies to use with the class.


It is so great to have such tremendous parent and community support for our school! We look forward to a night in May when we can do this again!!
