The Brent faculty has dedicated an immense amount of time and energy to
our class development process. Teaching teams took into account
individual student needs through multiple lenses (effective and ineffective
co-learners, academic strengths and growth areas, social development,
gender, ethnicity, and parent input) to create balanced classroom
communities for the coming year. After receiving those class lists, the
Brent administration reviewed the composition of students and teachers,
making minor adjustments to incorporate new students or to accommodate
for unexpected classroom changes. We returned these lists to teachers for
a final review and voila
–
published lists!
As you can see, classes were composed using an extensive amount of
thought and input to ensure that the best placement for each and every
student. lf you note something unexpected (such as an imbalance in
gender or class numbers), please know that it was a reasoned decision
(there may have been a grade-level imbalance in genders or an extra
instructional adult will be present in that classroom).
I hope that you and your child(ren) will be excited to discover this year's
teacher(s) and classmates, and l am confident in all of our teachers' ability
to foster academic growth, social development and community in their
classrooms. As such, I ask that placements remain for six weeks before
considering changes, and we will work together to assuage any concerns
in the meantime. However, if there are misspellings or omitted students,
please let me know and we will rectify the situation immediately.
Please also take a moment to review our new faculty pictures and bios on
the Brent website as they are posted over the coming days. We are
privileged to have a skilled and consistent group of Brent faculty returning
to our community for another year and to have several new additions to
match our growth!
Sincerely,
Norah Lycknell
