[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our elementary school, Somerset, used to post who was in what class a week or two before school started. It was really fun to see who DC'a teacher was and who was in their class. There was a definite party atmosphere outside the school as families clustered around to see who was where. The principal decided to send out postcards this year in lieu of posting the lists. I don't hate her like many do, but I think she makes decisions based on what will result in the least amount of work and complaining for her, rather than thinking of the school community. I bet she had too many immediate requests for student transfers and didn't want to deal with it anymore. Boo. How do other ES find out teacher placement?[/quote]

Lists on the classroom doors (and on the doors you go in if you're a bus rider) posted on the afternoon of the school open house, the last weekday before the first day of school. Or you can call the office during the open house and ask.

Like you, I'm guessing that the Somerset principal changed the policy because she didn't want to have to deal with parent complaints about Larla being in this class vs. that class. Quite correctly, in my opinion. I'm also guessing that the Somerset ES school community will be able to withstand this change in policy (and if not, perhaps the Somerset ES Foundation can help).[/quote]
