Class Placement 2022-23: A Note from Mrs. Lambert
Dear Cypress Village Community,

In preparation for the next school year, Cypress Village recognizes that parents have valuable information which could assist in the class placement of their child.  

Examples of this may be:
• an unsatisfactory experience between an older child and a teacher
• neighborhood problems that may necessitate the separation of two children
• description of the traits and characteristics present in a teacher that your child responds to best

We also recognize that parents sometimes have preferences for teachers and may request a specific teacher for their child. Although your request is reviewed, little consideration is given to specific teacher requests. We cannot place children in classes based only on parent preferences or a teacher’s reputation in the community.  Please keep in mind that staffing changes often occur from year to year. This includes teachers that may not return to teach at Cypress Village, new and additional teachers that may be added, and teachers changing grade levels. We group children for instructional purposes, and placing them in classes for other factors would defeat those purposes. Although not guaranteed, requests that include multiple class placement choices have a better chance of being accommodated. Parent requests asking for their child to not be placed in a class that includes a specific population of students, a certain classroom composition, or a combination classroom are given no consideration.

In summary, most parents do not request specific teachers for their child or have any additional information to give us, and leave it to us to place their child in an appropriate classroom.  However, if you have a specific request or pertinent information related to the classroom placement of your child for next school year, please CLICK HERE to submit your request before May 13th, 2022. 

Family Night at Jeffrey Trail Middle School 
Jeffrey Trail will be hosting their incoming 7th graders and their families at Family Night @JTMS on Thursday, April 14th from 6:00-6:45PM.

GATE and APAAS Informational Meeting
Cypress Village will be holding an informational meeting for parents who would like information regarding our school’s “Gifted and Talented Education” program on Thursday, April 21st from 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM in the Multi-Purpose Room. Some of our GATE teachers and principal will provide an overview of Cypress Village’s GATE program and IUSD’s APAAS program, and although anyone is welcome to attend, this meeting is specifically designed for parents of third, fourth, and fifth-grade students who have applied for APAAS or have an interest in their child's possible future participation in the GATE program at Cypress Village. The presentation is not designed for parents of a student currently participating in Cypress Village’s GATE program. The focus of our information meeting will not be on the criteria needed for GATE program admittance. For criteria information, it is recommended that you read the information on this link. If you  are unable to attend this meeting and have general questions about Cypress Village's GATE program or questions regarding the district's APAAS program, please contact your child’s teacher or visit our school’s website.

Open House
We anticipate Open House to be an in-person event. We are excited to share all that your children have accomplished this year! Mark your calendar for Thursday, April 28th. Times will be communicated as we get closer to the event.
