The Colonial Heights School Board announced today that it will begin the process of hiring a new superintendent by seeking public input on qualifications.
The school board has created a survey related to superintendent criteria, which is available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ColonialHeights25 and on the home page of the division web site. Hard copies of the survey will also soon be available at the School Board Administration offices, at each of the schools, Colonial Heights Public Library, and Colonial Heights City Hall Welcome Center.
In addition to the survey, the board will hold a public hearing at the regularly scheduled monthly school board meeting on February 25, 2025 at 6:30pm at the CHHS Tech Center (3451 Conduit Road).
SURVEY DEADLINE: February 27, 2025
This year, CHPS joined the Beanstack family! Beanstack is a reading log software that allows all of our students to log their reading minutes, participate in reading challenges, and earn badges and rewards for their reading time. Beanstack has a mobile app that students can use at home from any tablet or phone. All they need is their ClassLink login! And YES, grown-up read-aloud sessions are encouraged and count towards their minutes 😉
Visit our website to download the app, learn how to log in it, and start reading with your child at home: https://www.colonialhts.net/o/chcps/page/beanstack
