SOUTHWEST ELEMENTARY FRIDAY NOTE

It's that time of year to begin working on the class list recommendations for the 2020-2021 school year. We will follow a similar process to what we have done the last few years where I ask you to draft up class rosters balancing students academic, behavioral, and any other needs that you will students be successful. Please make sure to be in contact with Tasha and Brigette to make sure their recommendations are taken into account.

**Please note that these rosters are tentative and you are NOT asked to assign a teacher. I will be reviewing proposed rosters and assigning a teacher for each roster.

I would like these draft rosters to be complete by April 17th. As with everything else going on right now, the deadline is subject to change once we return to school.

Class Rosters 20-21
