Dear Families,

It is hard to believe we only have three months more of school! Parents in grades JK-7 should be hearing from your child’s teacher over the next few weeks to schedule for the next round of parent/teacher conferences. The staff and I will also begin working on classroom placement lists for next year as well. As always, I want to remind families that due to the complexity of this task and the need to have balanced, heterogeneous classrooms, we cannot take parent requests. You can see the rubric we use to assist us in making these decisions here.

We are a small school and there are only two choices for placement at each grade level. If for some reason there is compelling information that I am not already aware of, that should be considered along with other placement factors, please submit it to me in writing by May 1 for consideration. Otherwise, please know that we want the best groupings possible and will be making decisions with every child’s best interests in mind.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Sincerely,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero

Estimadas familias,

¡Es difícil creer que solo tenemos tres meses más de escuela! Los padres en los grados JK-7 deben recibir información del maestro/a de su hijo/a durante las próximas semanas para programar la próxima ronda de conferencias entre padres y maestros. La facultad y yo también comenzaremos a trabajar en listas de salón hogar para el próximo año. Como siempre, quiero recordarles que debido a la complejidad de esta tarea y la necesidad de tener aulas heterogéneas y equilibradas, no podemos tomar peticiones de los padres. Pueden ver la rúbrica que utilizamos para ayudarnos a tomar estas decisiones aquí.

Recordemos que somos una escuela pequeña y sólo hay dos opciones para salón hogar en cada grado. Si por alguna razón existe información convincente de la cual no estoy al tanto todavía, que debe ser sopesada entre los otros factores de colocación, favor de enviármela por escrito antes del 1 de mayo para poder considerarla. De lo contrario, por favor sepan que queremos las mejores agrupaciones posibles y tomaremos decisiones con el mejor interés de cada niño/a en mente.

¡Que tengan un lindo fin de semana!

Atentamente,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero
