Dear Keatsway Parents/Guardians,

As Spring approaches, I will be determining our staff and classes for next September.  Teachers will meet with me to consider the placement of each student based on a number of criteria which include:

  • the academic level of the student
  • the social/emotional development of each student
  • the teaching style of the teachers
  • the balance in each class of students with special needs
  • the balance in each class of boys and girls
  • the relationship that exists between students

If you feel that you have some information that you would like me to consider when placements are under discussion please write me a letter or an email (lori_briscoe@wrdsb.on.ca) by May 20 2015. For obvious reasons, parents are not permitted to request specific teachers but may highlight the learning and social needs of their child.  The final decision of student placement is the school’s responsibility.
