This year we're wrapping up 35 years of CHIME Early Education and kicking off 25 years of CHIME Charter School. Two milestones, one community, one day.

Join us on Saturday, August 15 for not one, but two chances to celebrate with the CHIME community. Start the morning at CCA's annual Pancake Breakfast at CHIME Charter School from 9 to 11 AM. Current and past families of all ages are welcome and classrooms will be open for tours.

Then that evening, we're gathering at Sagebrush Cantina in Calabasas at 6:00 PM for a casual alumni reunion night. Space is limited, so RSVP early!

Grab all the event details at chimeinstitute.org/alumni.
