Class Placement
Creating class lists is a thoughtful and complex process. Our administrative and learning teams work collaboratively, taking into account each child's unique learning needs, including:
- English Language Learners
- Individual support needs
- Peer relationships
- Class size and composition
- And many other important factors
We take great care to ensure every placement supports a positive and effective learning environment. Given the many considerations involved, we are unable to accommodate requests for changes to class placements. We appreciate your understanding and trust in our process.
You will receive an email from your child’s teacher by 12:00 pm on Thursday, August 28, welcoming your child to their class. This email will include your child’s class placement and instructions for the first day of school. If you do not receive this email by noon on Thursday, please contact the school office that afternoon.
