Class Placement School Year 2023-24
While there’s still plenty of action left in 2022-2023, we have already begun planning for the 2032-24 school year! One of the most important aspects in setting up our students for academic and social-emotional success is his/her homeroom class assignment. Making the most effective match with teacher and classmates is a very thoughtful, careful process that involves many different criteria. If you would like Dr. Ritter and Mrs. Agner to consider any specific information about your child that school staff may not know, particularly regarding learning style and classroom environment, please complete the following form by Friday, May 26, 2023.
Because you are the expert(s) on your child, we ask that you keep your information centered on your child and the type of learning environment you feel would be the most productive for him/her. Of course, with or without a letter, each child’s strengths and needs are considered in the lengthy and complex process of developing class assignments. With this in mind, please refrain from requesting a specific teacher by name.

SEL Screener
Students in grades 3-12 took the Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Screener in March. The SEL Screener reports will be mailed directly to families in the next week. This website includes both the Parent Report as well as a Family Guide to support you in understanding results and ideas for talking with your student about their results. Both are available in multiple languages. To learn more about SEL and how we support students at school and at home please see the FCPS SEL website. Please reach out to Mrs. Stottlemyer (school counselor), Mrs. Harris (school psychologist) or Ms. Joy (school social worker) with any questions.
WANTED: 6th Grade Baby Pictures!
Let's celebrate our 6th graders by displaying their baby, toddler or early childhood pictures!! Please send in a baby picture or a picture from your child's early years... from whenever that may be!
It's always fun to see how our Gators have grown! (Pictures should be no larger than 4x6 inches). Pictures will not be returned, so copies are best. A bulletin board will be created to honor how much they have grown as they prepare to finish elementary school and move on to middle school.
Please send pictures to the attention of Elaine Stottlemyer, School Counselor, or email to: etstottlemy1@fcps.edu
