PTA Spring Clubs
There are multiple benefits why Cheatham Hill Elementary PTA support
After School Programs for our students.
Here are just three of the benefits:
1) There is strong evidence that extracurricular activities increase self-esteem and positive social behaviors among children and adolescents.
2) After-school activities appear to improve school belonging, motivation, and academic achievement.
3) Elementary school students appear to have greater social engagement benefits when they are highly engaged in after school programming than when they are less engaged.

A Steam Club, Terrific Scientific Robotek
Let’s Build a Robot! The fantastic, real world benefits of making and programming robots.
Terrific Scientific Robotic Programs uses LEGO® bricks, KNEX, StarBots, Goldiblocks, etc that emphasize a mixture of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) and great tools that foster imaginative thinking.
Science is, by its nature, inquiry based. Inquiry is an approach to learning that utilizes discovery and scientific thinking processes to explore knowledge and learn skills. In order to achieve this, facilitators of inquiry based learning must create an environment rich with experiences that allow learners to act on their own curiosity. Youth need experiences that will stimulate their thinking and provoke questions (inquiry). Such experiences will help develop critical thinking abilities. This is what happens in our programs as robots are built!

WHAT IS FCA?
Fellowship of Christian Athletes, F.C.A, encourages students to grow in their faith through monthly campus meetings. Each month students can participate in campus meetings where they read devotionals, sing songs, and listen to various motivational speakers discuss a scripture based topic.
The campus meetings are led by fifth grade students who are selected through application and by teacher recommendation. These student leaders will be required to attend additional weekly meetings(every Tuesday after school) that are facilitated by Mrs. Rigsby, Mrs. Bishop, and Mrs. George who serve as the club teacher leaders for Cheatham Hill.
