[quote=Anonymous]I requested it at a MCPS before last school year. I wanted my DS to have the same teacher for 1st grade that he did for K (The teacher moved up a grade). The teacher was very good but my primary issue was familiarity. The principal denied the request but she was nice enough to assure me that the teacher they assigned would be the perfect fit for my DS and his personality. She was absolutely right. He had a tremedous year and he adored the teacher - would run through a wall for her. This told me 2 things. (1) that sometimes, despite what DCUM leads you to believe, some teachers and administrators DO know better than the parents. (2) That, at least at THIS school, the administrators do pay attention to the potential fit between kid and teacher. Rest assured, as long as he is at that school, I do not need to make the request.
