As the end of this school year approaches, plans for classroom placements are being made. Mr. Meurer will work closely with teachers, guidance counselors, and supervisors to place all of our incoming Kindergarten through second grade students into the next grade and support LIS as they place all of our current third grade students into fourth grade.
All students will be placed in heterogeneous classes with the best possible teacher match and a few familiar faces from previous classes. Any specific academic needs will be taken into consideration first.
Parents/Guardians of current Ben Franklin students are welcome to share any vital information with Mr. Meurer that the school does not already have. This information must be in writing and may not include requests for specific teachers. Please note that pertinent information shared in previous years must be resubmitted. For students who will be at LIS next year, Mr. Meurer will communicate any letters/emails with LIS when they begin their placement process.
Letters or emails must be received by June 20, 2017. If emailing, please email Mr. Meurer at wmeurer@ltps.org and put the phrase “2017-2018 Placement” in the subject line.
Please trust us to make the best placement possible for all children. It is important to us that students have successful academic and developmentally appropriate experiences in school with talented and caring teachers.
Final placement information will be mailed home in late August.
