Placement with Care

The elementary staff will soon be starting the student placement process for the 2021-22 school year.  Our goal is to create heterogeneous classroom groups to accommodate the learning needs and styles of every student.  The staff at each school spends a great deal of time and effort to determine the proper homeroom placement of children for the coming year.

The following factors are considered when seeking to provide the best educational program for all students in any given classroom:

→ Provide a balance by gender, ability, leadership qualities and classroom size.
→ Balancing by gender
→ Balancing by ability levels (below, on, above grade level)
→ Balancing specific strengths and needs, including any special needs, giftedness, or language issues.
→ Maintaining optimal classroom size
→ Create a positive match for students with peers.

• 
  Considerations are given for students who do not work well together, and also for students who may get along “too well,” interfering with learning.  Specific behavior needs (such as assertiveness, shyness, attention span and behavior choices) are also considered.

• We also consider information from related arts (music, art, physical education, library media) staff, Pupil Services staff, and 504/Individual Education Plan (IEP) teams are considered based on knowledge and observations of children in multiple environments.

• Parent input. Information from parents is considered as the final step in the process. We find that most parents are comfortable with the classroom placements made by staff.  However, we realize that parents can also provide specific information about their child that could be helpful in assisting the student placement process.  Parents may choose to provide written input into the placement process via the PARENT INPUT FORM available in the school office (to obtain the input form, you may call the office to request that a form be sent home with your child) or  by answering the parent input form questions via email again this year.  If you wish to share input, please call the office to request a form or send an email answering the following questions to Stacy Knapp, Principal at knapps@kaukaunasd.org :

1.  Student’s Name
2.  Present Grade
3.  Current Classroom Teacher for 20-21
4.  Please summarize any characteristics of your child’s learning that you feel we should know.
5.  Please describe the learning environment in which you believe your child may experience the most success.
6.  Please provide any additional information about your child that would be of use to us to make an appropriate decision.

Please note that:
➤ The emails or forms with responses must be received by Monday, May 3rd.  Emails or forms returned after this date may not be considered. 
➤ Completing a form is optional. The intent of this form is to provide additional child-specific information for the placement process, and not to specify a teacher preference. Requests that name a specific teacher may not be considered in the placement process. 
➤ Verbal information or requests cannot be honored.
