Long Branch Elementary School Classroom Information 2018-2019 ● Parents wishing to make a request for their child for the upcoming school year ​must​ make the request in writing to administration by submitting a completed ​Classroom​ ​Information Sheet​. Forms that are not completely filled out will not be considered. ● Parents are encouraged to remember that just as each child is unique, so is each teacher. ● Requests will be determined by school administration to ensure as even a mix as possible in all classes. There are many factors to consider when placing students. The final placement decision is based upon a variety of factors, including but not limited to academic and social considerations; total class size; and male/female ratio. No more than 50% of any given class may be made up of requests. ● The ​final​ decision on all student placements rests with administration after due consideration of recommendations and parent requests. We will do our best to place students per parent requests; however, we may not always be able to. There is no guarantee we can meet all of the requests that may be made. ● Classroom rolls will be posted during open house. ● A teacher’s placement in a specific grade level is subject to change. ● Thank you for the support you give your child and for your cooperation and understanding. ● ONLY​ ​WRITTEN​ ​REQUESTS​ ​RECEIVED​ ​BY​ ​THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL, (MAY 18, 2018) WILL​ ​BE​ ​CONSIDERED.
