Learning Environment Input for 2013-2014
All Monarchs receive a quality education in every classroom and with every teacher. As professional educators, the administration at Monarch Elementary strongly relies on the input of our teachers when deciding the placement of students. We also take into consideration a variety of factors, including but not limited to academic and social concerns, total class size, male/female ratio and heterogeneous grouping. We recognize that parents sometimes desire an opportunity to give input into their child's learning environment. As a result, we make this option available with our Learning Environment Input Form through June 5, 2013. Parents may request a particular classroom environment but not a particular teacher.
