8.2 - Classroom Placement Policy

SERIES 8 - ENROLLMENT

The classroom placement policy is designed to promote educational excellence and fairness by optimizing the learning environment in both tracks at each grade level while meeting special needs of individual students.

Parents may provide a written request to the Headmaster for a specific teacher for their child. However, such requests are not guaranteed because they can lead to imbalances in the classroom environment. Parents are encouraged to complete a confidential Student Classroom Profile Form to assist teachers in determining classroom assignments. Sending and receiving teachers at each grade level will use the information from this form in addition to their knowledge of classroom dynamics, special needs, availability of volunteers, diversity of student achievement, etc. to determine classroom assignments in order to provide a fair and common education for all students.

Parents are required to submit a Student Classroom Profile Form
