Over the coming weeks, our classroom teachers, specialists, counselors and special educators will work together to develop preliminary class lists for the 2025-2026 academic year. Our process is designed to create positive and balanced classrooms that will foster each child’s positive social and academic growth.
We will take many factors into consideration, including the individual strengths and needs of each child and school demographics. It has also been our observation and experience that peer dynamics can have as much (or sometimes even more) of an impact on a child's schooling experience as the teacher with whom a child is placed. This is why the starting point for our placement process is to consider the strengths and needs of all of the children at a particular grade level, and to build individual class lists that take into account the different personalities and learning styles represented in the cohort. With such large and complex student cohorts, we cannot accept requests for individual teachers.
Completing this form is not required. However, you know your child best and we would welcome any information that you believe would help us in placing your child in a classroom community that will best support your child's overall growth, success, and sense of belonging at the Morse School.
This form is due by Friday, May 16th, 2025.
Sincerely,
The Morse School Team
