Learning Environment Input Form (Teacher Request)
You probably already know that a lot of work and consideration goes into the process of building well-balanced classrooms. The school team considers the following to make balanced classrooms: academic achievement, group dynamics, parent input, class size, age, parent volunteers, social and emotional factors, and gender. Our goal is to build classes that ensure the best learning environment possible for all students. To achieve this goal, class placements are made by considering both group and individual needs. For this reason, parent requests for specific teachers will be considered, but cannot be guaranteed. Please also note that the school cannot take recommendations from parents to place specific students together in classes or separate certain students. Both of those decisions are made by school staff only.
By completing this form linked below, I understand that submission does not guarantee a specific classroom placement. I understand that this information will be used to help the school make decisions regarding the best learning environment for my child.
If you feel we need additional information regarding your child and his/her particular type of learning needs or environment, please complete this form by Friday, March 22, 2024.
Thank you for taking the time to share information about your child. It is greatly appreciated!
