[quote=Anonymous]MCPS teacher here. At our school, grade level teams meet shortly before the end of the school year to form classes for the following school year. Classes are structured around reading groups. Typically, there are three to four distinct groups in each class. Once reading groups are identified, we then go back and balance by gender and race. At our school, teachers can request that certain students be kept together or separated, so we check for these requests as well. Teachers' names are never assigned to a class at this time. At my school, teachers receive class lists during preservice week. Finally, parents are asked to complete a survey of sorts, identifying their child's strengths, areas of need, as well as types of environments that work for their child (highly structured, etc). I imagine administration may make adjustments on lists from June to August. [/quote]
