School Board

Are you interested in the future of Chester Academy and the children of Chester? Then you owe it to yourself and the children to attend the School Board meetings.  Meetings are the first Wednesday of the month at 7pm in the Chester Academy Media Center.

The Chester School Board publishes monthly updates for our Chester Academy Families and Chester Residents regarding activities and information related to the Chester School District. These updates cover general information as well as District finance and School activities.  You can find these updates on the School Board’s Monthly Highlights page.

Please visit the School Board's page on the Chester School District's website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
