NOTE: If your child is going to be late or absent for the day, please be a responsible parent and let the school office know as soon as possible. You can call 24 hours a day to leave a message. Do not call your child's teacher.



Visiting Chester Academy

If you are planning on a visit to Chester Academy please be aware we have implemented new security procedures in the building. Upon entering the school you are required to sign in with the receptionist in the secure vestibule. Access to the school is not allowed until you are signed in and been cleared by the receptionist. All outside doors are locked.


Contacting the School

If a child is missing from school with no notice, the school will assume your child may be in some sort of difficulty or danger. The Emergency Location Protocol is implemented immediately.

If your child is going to be late or absent for the day, please be considerate and let the school office know as soon as possible. You can call 24 hours a day to leave a message. 603-887-3621

On an average day, the office staff must call at least 12 parents/guardians. It can take the entire morning to locate a contact person to verify that a child is out for the day. Failure to follow this protocol can put a child's life at risk.
