At Edison Elementary School, we take the process of creating classes very seriously. We devote a significant amount of time and thought to balancing many factors when building classes. We aim to use an equitable process that honors each child’s needs and to find the absolute best learning environment for each individual, as well as the whole group. Below is a list of factors that are considered when developing classes for the upcoming school year (in no particular order):
- Gender
- Special services (IEP, Speech, 504, etc.)
- English language skills
- Academic abilities
- Parental involvement
- Social compatibility
- Learning styles
- Behavior
- Classroom environment
- Other extenuating circumstances
If you would like to give more input as to your child’s learning style and/or if you have particular social or academic concerns of which you would like to make us aware, please complete the Classroom Placement Input Form. Specific teacher requests will not be considered.
All Classroom Placement Input Forms are due to the Edison school office no later than Friday, May 10, 2013.
