IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
CLASSROOM ASSIGNMENTS FOR 2019 - 2020
A great deal of thought, effort, and time is put into the composition of classes. Teams of teachers and staff consider academics, behavior, social, and emotional needs, ratio of males and females, and also the learning needs and styles of students. We also take into consideration that teachers will have opportunities to apply for open positions within the district and building, making it difficult to have certainty of staff for the fall. Historically, families have put in writing their requests. We will consider requests as they relate to academics and learning styles, yet we can not guarantee placement as we must balance classes for all students. The Bauer team collaborates to create class lists during after school meetings prior to June. Please feel free to call the office with questions or clarification.
