2013 - 2014 School Year

We are beginning to plan for the 2013-2014 school year.  It takes a great deal of time for our staff to create class lists.  Your child's academic, social and emotional needs are carefully considered as the staff forms class lists for next year.  Our teachers do an excellent job of creating balanced class lists, as they know the students very well.  If you have a concern about your placement for next year, you need to share your concerns with your child's classroom teacher  IN WRITING by May 14.  Please keep in mind that you may not request a certain teacher for your child.  We try to match our student's various learning styles to the different teaching styles of our classroom teachers.
