Parent Input for Student Placement 2013-14

As we rapidly approach the end of the school year, placement of students for the 2013 - 2014 year will undoubtedly be the foremost on every parent’s mind. Please know that at Colin Powell Elementary School, we feel that parents are an integral part of our team; therefore, we welcome parent input into the placement of students in their respective classes. The assignment of students to classes is the primary responsibility of the school administrators, but it is a team effort that is performed with great care. If you have information about the kind of learning environment best suited for your child that would help us in the placement decision, please use the following link to to provide that information, Parent Input Form 2013-14. This is not a solicitation for parent requests for teachers, and indeed requests for specific teachers cannot be honored. Rather, this is an opportunity for parents to share information about their child that would impact the learning situation. We are requesting that all forms be sent to Mrs. Clifford no later than July 31, 2013.
