Chadbourne Elementary
Greeting Chadbourne families,
Welcome back to school! We hope you all had a restful and regenerative summer! We are all looking forward to a wonderful new school year. Our Vice-President position is still vacant so if you are interested in volunteering please consider signing up!
Unfortunately the data from the sign-ups last year was lost so we are asking parents to sign-up for committee chair and volunteer positions again. We are so grateful for all of the parent volunteers that make our many activities at Chadbourne such a huge success every single year. If you have any questions regarding any of the events, chair or volunteer positions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you!
CFFA Board 2023-24
