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.
