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.\u00a0 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 Families, Every mother is amazing!\u00a0 Happy Mother\u2019s Day to all the moms everywhere!\u00a0 A huge thank you to the PAC for the breakfast buffet to celebrate Teacher […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":1959,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2172","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-uncategorized","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2172","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2172"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2172\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2173,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2172\/revisions\/2173"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1959"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2172"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2172"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elementary.sd42.ca\/laityview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2172"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
