Principal's Message

As I begin my fourth year as principal of Chapman Hills Elementary, I continue to feel grateful for the opportunity to serve such an incredible school community. Each year, we build upon the strong foundation of collaboration, kindness, and high expectations that make Chapman Hills a place where every student can thrive.

This year, we remain focused on two key priorities: organization and individualized learning. We believe that when students are well-organized and have consistent systems in place, they develop the confidence and independence needed to be successful learners. You'll continue to see school-wide organizational tools, such as color-coded folders and uniform binders, helping students build lifelong habits that support both academic achievement and personal responsibility.

At the same time, we recognize that every child learns differently. Our dedicated teachers work hard to provide engaging, meaningful instruction that meets the individual needs of each student. Through small-group instruction, hands-on learning experiences, and differentiated support, we strive to ensure that every Bobcat is challenged, encouraged, and empowered to reach their full potential.

We are excited to continue offering B.U.M.P. (Bobcats Ultimate Music Program) for our TK–3rd grade students. This program enriches our students' educational experience by fostering creativity, confidence, and a lifelong appreciation for music.

In addition, thanks to the incredible generosity of our families during last year's Jog-A-Thon, we are thrilled to expand student opportunities by funding grade-level field trips throughout the 2026–2027 school year. These experiences bring classroom learning to life, create lasting memories, and provide meaningful opportunities for exploration beyond our campus. Your support makes these enriching experiences possible, and we are truly grateful for your partnership.

Thank you for your continued trust, support, and commitment to our school. Together, we will make the 2026–2027 school year another outstanding year filled with learning, growth, and unforgettable experiences for every Bobcat.

Warmest regards,

Michael Higgins, Principal
