Teachers collaborate to create class lists and consider many factors when assigning students to the next year's teacher. Classes are formed based on multiple criteria, including student learning needs, gender balance, emotional/behavioral strengths and needs, leadership balance, friendship considerations and any other unique needs or challenges that may arise. The formation of class lists is a time-intensive and thoughtful process with the needs of children at the forefront.

We do not accept formal requests for specific teachers. Special concerns about your child's placement for the upcoming school year, based on the criteria above, should be directed to your child's current teacher.
