Class Placement Feedback

For Parents/Guardians of Clermont K – 5 Students:

As we begin to look forward to next school year, I am sending you this optional form to gather your input regarding your child’s class placement for next year. This optional form is a place where you can share your overall knowledge of your child and their unique traits. The class placement process is approached very methodically, and many variables are considered by school staff. If you have more than one child at Clermont, please complete a separate form for each child. There are many factors that are considered when classes are formed. We will consider the parent/guardian information when making class placement decisions, but cannot guarantee that all parent/guardian requests can be honored.

When completing the form, I ask that you:

  • PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST A TEACHER BY NAME. We cannot honor requests for specific teachers.
  • Share the qualities of a teacher and classroom environment that would best meet your child’s needs. 
  • Let us know if you feel that your child should be separated from another student. We will take that request into consideration. Please remember that best friends are not a consideration for placement, and do not necessarily belong in the same instructional group.
  • Please do not include negative information about past teachers, as the teachers may read these forms when assisting with class assignments. 

If you are interested in sharing this information, please complete the optional form below and submit it by Friday, May 8, 2026. Requests will only be accepted through this form, and the form will close on Friday, May 8, 2026.

Twain Community Night

The Mark Twain Middle School PTA looks forward to joining the Mark Twain administration, teachers and staff in welcoming the greater Twain MS community to this annual family event, Twain Community Night on Thursday, May 14, 2026 from 6 - 8pm. Twain Community Night is open to current and new students including rising 7th graders from our pyramid elementary schools. This is a fun evening for both students and parents to meet your future teachers, see the school and participate in fun activities. Stop by the PTA tables in the cafeteria to say Hello, participate in the raffle, enjoy our concession stand and grab fresh spirit wear!

Does your local business want to participate as a sponsor or donate an item to our raffle? Email mtmspresident@gmail.com for more information. We love opportunities to promote our community.

Moving Out of the Area?

Is your family moving next year? While we are sad to see our students move on, we would love to be able to support them during their transition. Please fill out this FORM if your family is moving next year to help our School Counselors know how to best support your children. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Green or Mrs. Wheeler.
