A message from the principal
Hello!
Can you believe it's almost the last day of April and we have four weeks of school left? I can't believe we are beginning to talk about ending the year and beginning next year.
Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week, and oh my do we have so many teachers we truly 'appreciate.' We truly have the best teachers at Harrington committed to loving and caring so deeply for our students. The level of commitment and dedication demonstrated over the past few months is profound. We have the most committed staff that continue to learn and support even when we are walking through an unknown, scary time. They are committed and have the strongest work ethic --- for that I'm sure proud to be their partner. I hope you'll take a moment to thank those that have been able to greatly impact your children next week.
As we prepare for taking steps in to the next school year, You will be able to request a 'type' of teacher for your child using the Google link below. A certain teacher may not be available because of staff changes that occur from year to year. You will be requesting a specific 'type'. Not a specific teacher.
The teachers, Mrs. Dias, and I spend an enormous amount of time placing our students in the most appropriate classroom for the upcoming school year. Classes must be balanced as to academic needs, gender, behavioral accommodations, learning styles, and individual special needs. We also consider the teaching and learning styles. We encourage you to trust us to select the most appropriate teacher for your child.
Not everyone will need to complete the Google Form. We understand and appreciate the vast majority of parents who are comfortable with our placement of their children. However, if you feel your child has areas we need to address and are not aware of, now is the time to complete the Google Form. The Google Form must be completed by Friday, May 15th.
