[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It takes us hours every spring to figure out classes for the following year. [/quote] You keep saying this but then what about all the new kids that show up over the summer? Do you just randomly throw them in wherever?[/quote] [b]I'm sure they use the same methodology [/b](what are known about the students) in class placement (total students in each class, ESOL, academic level, etc.).[/quote] This poster is not a teacher. When classes are made, we shuffle and reshuffle for a long time to get the right mix. Once the classes are set, they just do they best they can. Sometimes, slots are left in one class. Other times, students are put into the smallest class, unless they come with an IEP. I’ve seen both. [/quote]
