classes for next year.\u00a0 Please be assured that staff devote considerable time, care and attention to this process.\u00a0 This very complex and lengthy responsibility occurs over several weeks and continues into September when class placements are finalized.<\/p>\n Throughout the year, there have been many opportunities for parents and teachers to discuss each child.\u00a0 Staff work together to consider the following criteria very carefully:\u00a0social emotional skills and relationships, <\/strong>as well as learning styles, strengths, and needs.<\/strong>\u00a0 Our goal is to create safe and engaging inclusive classrooms that balance these factors, as equitably as possible.<\/p>\n If you feel there is further<\/u> information to consider about your child, you may submit input to the principal or vice-principal (and\/or your child’s classroom teacher) in writing using this <\/strong>FORM<\/strong><\/a> or by sending an email to lisa_lawrance@sd42.ca or <\/strong>suzanne_collette@sd42.ca<\/strong><\/a> by May 24th<\/sup><\/strong>.\u00a0Please refrain from requesting specific teachers or peers by name<\/strong>.\u00a0 As class placement at Laity View is a collaborative process, parent input forms are shared with all teachers for discussion.<\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Mrs. Lawrance<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Laity View
