Welcome Stephanie Prewitt!

For the fourth year in a row, CDS celebrated the arrival of Thanksgiving Break with a Shoebox Parade reminiscent of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Mrs. Martin got the inspiration for the event from the book Balloons Over Broadway by Melissa Sweet,

which tells the story of puppeteer

Tony Sarg and the founding of the

iconic parade.

Please welcome new Director of Development, Stephanie Prewitt, to the Chesterfield Day School community! Stephanie has extensive experience in the non-profit fundraising world, most recently at the St. Louis Zoo.

Stephanie and her family reside in Kirkwood, where she stays busy shuttling her children Lou (8) and Ella (6) to their many activities, including hockey and gymnastics. She is originally from Springfield, MO, and loves to travel both in and outside of Missouri, particularly Table Rock Lake.

ā€œIā€™m really looking forward to visiting with all the CDS

families. I hope to see many of you at upcoming events,

and plan to reach out for coffee and other opportunities where I can get to know you better.ā€

Stephanie encourages parents to contact her any time via email or phone (ext. 202).
