Greetings Dealey Community!
“The great teacher is not the man who supplies the most facts, but the one in whose presence we become different people.”- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Thank you all for a great MS Field Day last week! Your efforts will always be cherished by our middle school students. I hope you all are enjoying your weekend. We are looking forward to a marvelous upcoming week here at Dealey!
This week is all about Teacher Appreciation Week! We have the BEST teachers in the world.
We now have an opportunity to say “Thank You” to our amazing teachers and staff!
Dealey teachers come early, they stay late and always go above and beyond. They are a wonderful group of caring and compassionate educators. They work tirelessly to make Dealey a safe and nurturing environment for all of our students.
Thank You Dealey Teachers! We appreciate you!
We are Soaring to New Horizons!
Love❤️ Principal Garrett
24-25 Classroom Placement Guidelines
Dear Families,
Over the next few weeks, we will begin the process of assigning students to an appropriate class for next year. The Dealey staff spends much time and effort on this placement process. In putting together class lists for next year, we will consider many factors including research-based grouping strategies. We utilize the classroom teacher’s knowledge of every student, and in addition, our academic support teachers (504, ESOL, SPED), specialists, counselors and administrators provide input and review the proposed class lists.
Given the complexity of placing all students, we will NOT consider the following requests:
· Requests for a specific teacher.
· Requests that specific students be placed with your child.
· Requests NOT to have a specific teacher, unless you have had another child with that teacher in the past.
Your child’s classroom teacher will be sent out to you by July 28th.
Please understand that once homeroom teachers are assigned and students are placed, the lists are final. Moving even one child from a class can upset the balance of a classroom or interfere with scheduling.
Students approach the new school year in a positive light when we encourage them to be excited about making new friends and getting to know a new teacher.
We will not conduct individual conferences with the administration or counselors regarding placement.
If you need to file a placement complaint, you will be required to go through the formal Dallas ISD Appeal process. You will have only 10 business days after receipt of placement to file your formal appeal to the campus principal.
Again, each Dealey student will be hand placed with great care. Each student’s emotional well-being and academic success is our priority!
Sincerely,
Dealey Placement Committees
