Last Thursday, we gathered for our district retirement ceremony to celebrate the “Noteworthy Impact” our 2026 retirees have made across Chesapeake Public Schools. 💙✨

Together, we honored 166 dedicated employees whose service, leadership, and compassion have helped shape the lives of students, staff, families, and our entire community. Together, they represent 3,499 collective years of commitment to public education and student success. #CPSCelebrates #EmpowerCPS

It’s teacher appreciation week, and we’ve been reading through your wonderful messages for and about our teachers. Check out this one for Kevin Wasinger at Oscar Smith High:

“When my kids come home, your name is one of the first they mention, often with excitement and stories about what they learned. That speaks volumes about the impact you’re having. You are clearly making a meaningful difference in their lives, and I am so grateful that you get to be a part of their journey.” - A Parent
