Dear Todd Families,
With the spring season upon us, we begin to look ahead to the next school year. Teams of teachers, support staff members, and administrators are preparing for the class placement process. To achieve the best possible learning environment for all students, we gather information about how each child learns, performs, and interacts. Our goal is to create well-balanced, heterogeneous classes. To do so, we carefully consider each student's academic strengths and challenges, as well as behavioral, social, and emotional needs.
We put a great deal of thought and care into the placement process to create classes in which all students thrive. We consider the unique needs of each individual student. If you wish to share information about your child as a learner, you are welcome to complete an optional Parent Form. If you choose to complete the form, please do so by Wednesday, April 19th. Please do not submit requests for specific teachers as these will not be considered due to the highly complex nature of the placement process.
If your child will not be returning to Todd School in September, please contact Sue DeResh in our main office at sderesh@briarcliffschools.org. She will assist you with the transfer of records to your child's new school.
Class placement information will be shared with you via the Parent Portal at the end of August. Thank you in advance for your input and support.
Warm Regards,
Jessica Michaelidis, Principal
