CLASSROOM PLACEMENTS: 2014-2015
In the coming weeks, our teaching staff will be meeting to create tentative class lists for next year. The classes will be determined by considering the following factors:
- Learning styles and strengths
- What the child can do in relation to the program
- Degree of independence in work habits
- Social and personal needs
- Age and physical maturity
- Previous year's placement
- Previous teachers input
- Parent input / requests
- Establishing a balanced group academically
- Male/Female balance
- Friendship groupings
- Equalizing class size
- Siblings/Twins
- Special needs
- Medical needs
If you have some information that you would like to include in this process, please forward a note to Mr. Carruthers at the office or correspond via email at mcarruthers@deltasd.bc.ca. We would only ask that you please refrain from making a "teacher" request and focus on what you believe to be the best learning environment for your child. Thank you in advance for your attention to this.
