What is PeaceBuilders®?
At Chestnut Hill Community School we strive to promote a positive, peaceful learning environment through daily use of the PeaceBuilders Program®. We recite the PeaceBuilders Pledge each morning. Throughout the school year, classroom lessons and school wide events address each component of the pledge. We also use the PeaceBuilders language each day to create teachable moments at school. The PeaceBuilders Program was adopted by the Belchertown school district in 2011 as part of the new MA Anti-Bullying law and it is used throughout the district.

Monthly PeaceBuilder Award Recipients
All teachers and staff in the building have a roll of raffle tickets. When they see or hear about a student who did something AWESOME, showing that they are a caring individual and role model for other students, the teacher/staff might give out one of those tickets. Students put their tickets into the "shiny silver box" for a chance to win a reward from the monthly drawing. The School Counselors draw 4 names from each grade level at the end of each month. These students are given a Certificate of Recognition, and a prize of their choosing (Ex: special pen/pencil, cool eraser, stress ball, slinky, Hotwheels car, keychain, stickers, stuffed animal, jewelry, finger puppet, etc.). They also get their picture posted on this website. Take a look below!
