THE BEST LEARNING ENVIRONMENT FOR MY SCHOLAR FOR THE 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR
It has been our practice at CES to invite parents to be a part of selecting the best learning environment for each scholar. We will not be accepting letters but we will use a Google Form to gather your voice about your scholar's learning environment.
Please read the FAQ before submitting your Google Form. https://forms.gle/t3L9sU32GKVKJmuTA
FAQ
Can I share information about the learning environment I want my scholar to have next year?
Yes, you can record on the Google Form the ideal learning environment your star scholar needs to be successful in the classroom. Naming a specific star teacher will not be honored.
Do you take specific teacher requests?
No we do not take specific star teacher requests because staffing can change at anytime and any CES staff member will meet the needs of your star scholar. Specific star teacher requests will not be honored.
When is the optional Google Form due to Mrs. Hilliard describing the characteristics of the ideal learning environment for my star scholar?
