Student Placement for 2016-2017 

As we begin to plan for classes for next year, I want to share the following:

We try to use our best professional judgment to create balanced classes. We consider the following factors when making class lists:

An even distribution of students according to ability;

A fair balance of boys and girls in a classroom;

A fair distribution of students who demand care and attention from the teacher; and,

The mixture of students’ personalities and probable“fit” as a class.

Parents may submit written information about their child for staff to consider for student placement. Specific requests for teachers are not accepted.

You can access all approved flyers for activities and events at the Community Corkboard on the district website: http://www.sjschools.org/sjps-parents/community-cork-board-district
