2015-2016 Teacher Request
April 13th through April 17th
Teacher Request Forms will be available upon request in the Indian Woods office. You may also use
this form to share information regarding your child’s emotional or learning needs without specifying a
teacher name. All forms will be due no later than April 17th, 2015. Any form turned in after the due
date can not be considered.
We encourage you to allow our staff to determine your child’s teacher for the coming school year.
Teachers consider many factors when placing your child in a classroom. As most of our grade levels
departmentalize for two subjects, your child will likely have both teachers in their day.
As in the past, due to teacher staffing requirements, the teacher that you have requested may not be
staffed in the same building or grade level the next school year.
Fourth Grade is learning Water Safety this month. Each Fourth Grade class will be traveling to the
YMCA to participate in the event. Mrs. Sanchez’s class will be going on Friday, April 17th and Mrs.
VanderGraaff’s class will be going on Friday, April 24th.
