Thank you PTA!
As with any new event, there are bumps along the way. I will be meeting with the board soon to debrief and we would love your constructive feedback. One area we know needs improvement is the time waiting in line for food. We are already brainstorming possibilities for next year. If you have another idea for how to improve our auction next year, I would love to hear it. Thank you in advance for reaching out with ideas and solutions for the areas that need to be improved.
Class Placement Process
We are not able to accommodate special requests for teachers in a fair and equitable way. So, please do not make a specific teacher request (either on the form or to your child's current teacher). Please know that while we will consider your input, there are no guarantees for class assignments or requests. Finally, to ensure our process is equitable for all students, please note that special requests or teacher changes will not be accommodated once the placement process has been finalized. Once you have been notified who your teacher will be for the year, you are encouraged to partner with your teacher so your student has a successful year. One of the great things about Jackson is the quality of teachers across the school. So, even if your child doesn't get their first choice, they are still in for an amazing year of growth.
