Our Leadership & Staff Home / About Us / Our Leadership & Staff Meet Our Dedicated Team A Message from Our Principal Jeanine Simone, Principal Welcome to Chesterbrook Academy Sewell – a community where every child is known, loved, and inspired to reach their fullest potential. At our school, we believe that the foundation of a lifelong love of learning is built within a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment. Our mission is rooted in the simple but profound belief that when children feel valued and secure, they possess the confidence to face any challenge and the curiosity to explore the world around them. A Legacy of Dedication What truly distinguishes our school is the remarkable tenure and commitment of our faculty. With 50% of our staff serving our community for between 3 and 39 years, your child is supported by educators who view their work as a calling. Our teachers bring a depth of experience and a “bought-in” spirit that ensures a consistent, high-quality academic experience. They take immense pride in their classrooms, viewing every family partnership as a cornerstone of our success. An Environment Designed for Growth Our campus is thoughtfully designed to balance academic rigor with physical well-being. Our learning environment follows a structured schedule that allows for maximum engagement while helping children adjust with ease. Beyond the classroom, our three age-appropriate playgrounds provide dedicated spaces for outdoor play and physical development, ensuring that our students remain active and energized throughout the day. Traditions That Inspire We are proud of the unique traditions that define the student experience here, most notably our signature Pre-K graduation. This journey includes a curated “ABC countdown” of experiential learning—such as “E is for Experiments”—and a celebratory trip to Storybook Land, culminating in a formal cap-and-gown ceremony at the Washington Township Municipal Building. These milestones are not just celebrations; they are reflections of the confidence in the skills developed that our graduates carry with them into elementary school. Our Commitment to Your Family Safety and trust are the pillars of our community. From our stringent 10-hour health and safety training and triple-background checks for all staff, to our secure keypad access and “face-to-name” protocols, we prioritize your child’s security so that their focus can remain on discovery. Voted “Best of Washington Township” four years in a row, we invite you to visit our campus to experience the family atmosphere firsthand. We look forward to connecting you with our current families and showing you how we prepare our students to be not only great scholars but good friends and confident leaders.
