October 27, 2009
Welcome to Chain Lake Elementary! We are a vibrant learning community nestled in the hills north of Monroe, Washington. We serve the needs of almost 600 students, ranging in age from kindergarten through fifth grades.
As part of the Monroe Public Schools, we:
- provide a safe, nurturing learning environment with highly qualified, effective staff
- promote active, engaging instruction for all students
- partner with families and community to ensure a learning community that practices shared leadership, embraces diversity, and demonstrates our belief that each child can succeed
We believe strongly in the three-part educational team of student, family, and educator, and we strive to live that each day. Our school is a warm, caring, and respectful place where our students are supported and guided toward meeting high academic and social expectations. Students learn from a challenging, relevant curriculum that helps them to become curious, active learners while also preparing them for their futures.
And most importantly, we love learning and have fun each day!
We would love to have you join our educational team by volunteering or providing input on how we can better serve our students and community. Please join us!Gina Anderson, principal

Important Notice About Internet Safety
The best way to protect children from online harm is to keep computers in a family area of the home. Visibility allows parents to look over the students' shoulders without being too oppressive. Young children should have a parental chaperone whenever they are on the Internet. Two sites that discuss these issues and offer advice can be found at www.safekids.com and www.safeteens.com.
Hyperlinks to staff web sites (located on the Staff tab above) are provided for student and parent convenience, and all staff web sites are hosted by external Internet service providers. Monroe Public Schools assumes no liability for content contained on external service provider sites. Filtering software from one of the providers listed below is recommended to prevent unauthorized access to sites beyond the District's control.
