Classroom Placements

Parents may provide written input to the principal concerning their child’s learning style, strengths, weaknesses, interests and special needs. Written parental input must be received by the principal no later than April 1st.  The principal will review the parent comments and the teacher input before determining final class assignments.

Due to departmentalization, your child will see multiple teachers daily. This structure has proven beneficial in that teachers are able to concentrate on their area(s) of content and provide richer learning opportunities and the movement between classrooms/teachers provides students with natural brain breaks, as well exposure to different teaching/personality styles.
