We must have attended different open houses because I got clear answers about how placement happens. In addition to the JA teachers speaking to my current 5th grader's teachers and evaluating his classroom work and test scores, there is also a pre-school orientation week where - in addition to social activities so kids get to know each other - there are assessments for math, writing and reading. Both of these are combined to place students on a track that is appropriate for them academically. There are also points during the school year where students can be placed in more advanced classes based on how they are doing academically in their different classes. This all sounded like a thorough plan that will evaluate each student and meet them where they are. Also the current parents who spoke at the open house agreed that each of their students was placed at an appropriate level, either at the start of the year or later on when they showed they were working at a higher level.[/quote]

Me again (who wrote the above). I wanted to add that this came from the principal, Greg Dohmann.[/quote]
