[quote=Anonymous]A friend is a NoVa (but not FCPS) teacher and she described it like this - 1. Special Needs and English Language Learners are placed first to check for conflicts with the support staff that provides services to those populations. 2. Layer in the gifted cohorts. 3. Check for any native language or racial minorities. Try to make sure they have at least one kid who speaks their language or shares their culture - based on a form parents fill out. 4. Spread out the kids who are left to balance the gender ratio and avoid known personality conflicts. 5. Honor teacher preferences if it doesn’t mess up #1-3 in that order of priority. 6. Parent requests are last and only if the teacher agrees. 4. [/quote]
