NOTICE: For Parents About Late Educational Input
We want to make sure our message is consistent for everyone who reaches out. Please read our statement below about educational input that’s submitted after the May 1st deadline. Just a reminder, the original Educational Input Survey was shared through Parent Square, email, text, Instagram, and was posted on our school website for several weeks prior to the deadline.
Dear Parent,
To help you understand our process, we want to be transparent about how classroom placements are made:
- Our first round of class lists is built using the educational input submitted by parents before our May 1st deadline. This helps us consider specific learning needs, requests for separation, and other accommodations.
- Next, teachers work to balance classrooms by considering special education needs, accommodations, behavior, academics, and making sure every student has a friend or peer connection.
- After that, our administrative and special education teams review and revise the lists to ensure balanced classrooms, taking into account confidential needs, student ratios, and teacher workloads.
By the time final rosters are set, we’ve spent a lot of time making sure each class is carefully balanced. We do receive late requests and input from parents, and while we take every one seriously, making changes at this stage is very difficult because of the impact on the balance we’ve worked hard to create. In some cases, we find that a request has already been addressed.
Since our rosters are balanced at this point, we aren’t able to make changes right now. If a spot opens up or circumstances change before the school year starts, we’ll reach out to you directly.
Thanks again for your understanding and for your care and advocacy. If you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know.
Best,
Mrs. Gleave & Mr. Lovell
Principal and Assistant Principal
Monte Vista Elementary
