Horace Mann School Class Placement Input
The teachers and administration will work together to create the 2023-2024 classes. The teachers worked very hard this year with you and your child. They have a deep and broad understanding of your child's unique needs and strengths, learning style, academic levels in all subjects, peer relationships, leadership qualities, behavioral strengths and needs, family communication style, and family ability to support the classroom. We will use these experiences, our knowledge of child development, and our understanding of educational fundamentals to develop class placements.
Our top priority is to create balanced classrooms where every child has an optimal environment for success. We provide an opportunity for families to share additional information they feel the teacher has not yet learned. If you choose to do it, this form is DUE BY Friday, March 31, 2023.
IMPORTANT: We may not know how many sections we will have next year before this is due. We may not know how many composite classes (more than one grade in a room like a Grade 1-2 class). We may not know which staff will be teaching in which positions. We will accept input on placement in a composite classroom, but we cannot guarantee that we can honor these requests. Forms that include request for specific teachers will NOT be considered and will be deleted. We may change class lists into the 3rd week of school to balance classes.
Class lists for the 2023-2024 school year will be available in Campus in early August. They will be posted on the cafeteria windows on August 25, 2023.
