[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our child will start K this fall. We registered her at our home ES. [b]When do classes typically (and teacher assignment) form? July? Early August? [/b]

Who decides teacher assignment? Principal?[/quote]

I'm not sure the reason for your question so I don't know if this will be helpful but if there is something you have concerns about or would like the school to know about when it comes to class placement, I would call and ask to speak to the principal, AP, or even counselor. My sense is with K it is a crapshoot mostly so information could be helpful if it isn't presented as a demand or the start of a relationship with a parent who they will never be able to please. In my experience, they have appreciated knowing which kids don't do well together moreso than asking for certain kids to be together or with a certain teacher. [/quote]

Not OP but I appreciate OP's post. For some children (e.g. kids with special needs), meeting the teacher ahead of time (not during a hectic open house) or even just seeing a picture can help them with the transition to kindergarten. Having a general idea of when children get assigned to classrooms can be helpful for figuring out how to best approach the school to solicit their support with the child's transition to kindergarten.[/quote]

If the concern is about a Special needs child just call the school and speak with Admin and/or Spec Ed Coordinator.  This is something that they have dealt with before and will know best how to assist.[/quote]
