Letter from the Principal

Dear Viking Families,

Welcome back! It is truly an honor to be part of a community where parents, teachers, and students care for each other and strive to build positive relationships that support academic and social growth. The St. Bernard School District’s theme for the year is Unlocking Potential!   I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with you and your child to make this year the best one yet.  Our Faculty and staff will work hard to continue to build strong relationships with parents, students and community partners.  We are eager to meet the needs of our students in the classroom, but are prepared to adapt to all district, state, and federal guidelines to provide a challenging education in a safe environment for our students.

Our ever-expanding technology resources and ongoing teacher training will allow us to meet the demands of today’s shifting learning environment. To stay informed we encourage parents to use the online tools available, including School Status, the school and district websites as well as our CES Facebook page, Chalmette Elementary Connection, which celebrates our successes and provide a calendar of upcoming events. Through the Student Progress Center, you can monitor your child’s grades all year long.  The faculty and staff look forward to working with you and your children to make this school year the best one yet.

Enthusiastically,

Katie A. McNab
