We are beginning to prepare for 2012-2013 school year. General education teachers along with the teachers who serve youngsters in special education, ESOL, gifted, and our specialists’ staff will have input into the class placements for our students. The staff considers the academic, social, emotional needs along with the level of independence and personal responsibility when putting together a group of youngsters. Please know that our staff makes very thoughtful and deliberate decisions when making classroom recommendations. 

Your input will be considered. You are welcome to write a letter with a specific teaching style. Your letters of input will go to the secretarial staff who will pull out any letter that specifically mentions a teacher by name. ANY LETTER THAT SPECIFICALLY MENTIONS A TEACHER BY NAME OR REFERENCE A TEACHER IN ANY WAY WILL BE DISREGARDED.   All letters will be shared with the current classroom teacher and the teacher for the 2012-13 school year. Letters are due by May 18, 2012.   We will NOT be accepting any letter after this date.

We hope that you will trust us in making this important decision.   To maintain professionalism, classroom teachers and counselors will not be discussing classroom placement. All input must be in writing via the front office staff. Thank you for honoring our request.

If you are not returning to Alvey for the 2012-2013 school year, please complete and return the linked form.
