Mrs. Braden's class would like to once again thank the New Albany Floyd County
Education Foundation for the grant that was awarded to our classroom. We were able to purchase
a flat screen TV and blue ray DVD player for the classroom. We continue to be very thankful for
this wonderful opportunity the foundation provides for teachers to serve our students. Please
consider making a donation http://www.nafcedfoundation.org/
Parent of Car Riders: Students should arrive between 7:35 and
8. The gate is closed each day at 8 AM. Students arriving after
8 AM are late for school.
Car riders eating breakfast should
arrive prior to 7:45, so they have time to eat. Thanks for your
cooperation.

Each spring the teachers in all grade levels spend a great deal of time creating
homeroom lists for the upcoming year. The teachers balance student learning
styles, reading levels, academic abilities, behavior, ratio of boys and girls, and
overall class size. Teachers work diligently t place children within a class that
will provide the best learning environment to meet his/her individual needs.
We try to find the best mix of students to insure a successful year.
If you have any special requests for homeroom for the 2015-2016 year, please
submit your request in writing to Mr. Duffy by April 24. Your request needs to
state specific academic reasons for your request and provide a 1st choice and
a 2nd choice option. We will consider all requests, but we will need to
maintain balance in our classrooms. Parent requests will not be the sole
determining factor when placing your child.
Students will be notified of their homeroom teacher in a welcome back to
school letter in mid July. (Please make sure that we have your correct
address.) Regardless of your child’s placement , please remember, it is very
important to remain positive. The first week of school will set the tone for the
entire year. We want to see you child get off to a terrific start. Thanks for your
cooperation and support.
