WELCOME!!! On behalf of all of the teachers and staff here at Chabot, I am so happy to welcome you back to school for what promises to be an amazing school year. If you just recently registered for Chabot, you can click to view my whole WELCOME BACK LETTER that was sent as part of our Summer Mailing. We are also attaching electronic copies of our Official Bell Schedule and Calendar which were sent in the same mailing.
Below are some important updates
NO IN PERSON REGISTRATION:
We have decided to do Registration virtually, the two Chabot specific forms are attached to this notice.
