"Engaging All Students Today for Success in Tomorrow's World"

 Welcome to Chestnut Elementary

My name is Ms. Jamie Smith and I am the very proud principal of Chestnut Elementary School! I am so thankful and excited to be a part of the Chestnut team and invite you to join me every step of the way on our journey of learning and growing this school year!

It really “Takes a village to raise a child.” Through a close partnership with parents, staff members and the community doing “whatever it takes”, and working together, I am confident our Chestnut students can achieve academic excellence! Together, we will all ensure that we are “Engaging All Students for Success in Tomorrow’s World!” 

To maintain a positive environment, it is important for students and families to understand our expectations. This is critical to keep everyone safe. Thank you in advance for taking the time to review our handbook online and the newsletter links below.

I look forward to our partnership and invite you to get involved by attending our parent Booster Club/PTA meetings this year. We offer parent volunteer opportunities and important information via our Infinite Campus messaging, quarterly principal newsletters, as well as following us on Twitter @ChestnutPRIDE.

I look forward to working with you to support the education of your child. I encourage you to call the office at 440-392-5350, email me at jamie.smith@pcls.net or call with any questions or concerns. I cannot wait to get to know you and look forward to meeting you! It is truly an honor to serve our students every day!
