Chippewa Hills School District

Introducing Website Wednesdays! We’re making lots of improvements on our Chippewa Hills website and within our CHSD Warriors app. Every Wednesday, we’ll showcase some of the new features on our website and show you where you can find valuable District information both online and in the district app. This week, let’s talk about Rooms! Parents, have you joined Rooms yet? Rooms is a new feature in the CHSD Warriors app that allows parents and guardians to stay up to date with classroom announcements and message with your student’s teachers. If you have not received your invitation to join Rooms, or if you’re having trouble with your Rooms account, you can fill out the Rooms Request Form on our website or in the app. The direct link to the form is: https://www.chsd.us/forms/chsd-app-rooms-request-form The form can be found on our website from the District home page under District > CHSD Warriors App > Rooms Access. It can also be filled out on the app under the District page > Forms > CHSD App: Rooms Request Form. Once we set up your account, we’ll email you an invitation to Rooms (the email comes from EduRooms). Just click on the link in that email to complete your account setup. From there, you’re good to go and you can log in to the Rooms portal in the CHSD Warriors app! If you're having login issues or trouble with your account, just fill out the form and we'll reach out to help!

Now you can easily get team schedules and information, download athletics forms, and view athletics updates and announcements all from one place!

Our September Board of Education Meeting is tonight at 6 PM at Barryton Elementary.

REMINDER: No school on Friday, August 30 and Monday, September 2. Have a great Labor Day weekend, Warriors!

BUSSING UPDATE: Trees and power lines are down throughout the area. Please be patient as our busses are running behind!

COMING MONDAY: Say "hello" to parent-teacher chat and classroom announcements in the CHSD Warriors app with a new feature called Rooms! Now it's easier than ever to stay up-to-date with the district, schools, AND with your student's teachers and classes. On Monday, parents and guardians will receive a personalized invitation via text and email to create their login access to Rooms within the CHSD app. If you haven't done so already, be sure to download the CHSD Warriors app to your phone. It's free in the Google Play and Apple App Store.

Power is back on in Barryton! Students were just loading the busses, so they are heading back inside now. Happy 2nd day of school and thank for bearing with us as we navigate the unexpected!

Due to a widespread power outage, Barryton Elementary is currently without power. All students are being transported by bus to the High School Auditorium for the remainder of the school day. At the end of the day, students will be transported by bus back to Barryton Elementary where they will be dismissed at 3:15 PM with their usual dismissal procedures. Unfortunately, there is not enough time to safely transport all the Barryton students home before the busses will be needed for dismissal at all the other buildings. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
