Dear Parents,
Welcome to Challenge Charter High School. We are partners in your student’s education. We will provide outstanding teachers, a caring and supportive staff, and a safe and fun learning environment for your student. As our partners, we need you to instill in your students the value of education. Some of the best ways to do this are making sure your student arrives each day on time and ready to learn, helping them with homework, and talking with them about ideas and topics that they’re studying in school. I also strongly encourage you to read to and with your students, regardless of their age, as this is one of the best ways to foster their love of reading while building their skills.
Challenge Charter is your school. I want you to feel that you are an integral part of this learning community. Everyone who is a member of this community - teachers, parents, secretaries, administrators, instructional assistants, the custodian, and of course the students, is actively engaged in learning and growing as an individual. We encourage and learn from each other while solving meaningful problems, whether it’s in mathematics or social relations. We know that learning together and from one another is one of the most powerful ways to learn, and it also builds relationships and community.
Get involved! The more you get involved, the more you and your student will benefit from school. I strongly encourage you to join us and to volunteer as a classroom tutor or computer lab aide, and chaperone on field trips. Please contact school for more information on ways to participate.
Sincerely,
Walt
Gess
