Swansfield Message for Redistricted Students 

 

Please Join Us for Virtual Student Visits; Complete Parent Consideration Form

May 8, 2020

Dear Future Swansfield Families,

In the midst of all that has been happening the past few months, we hope that you have found some time to enjoy both old and new.  Perhaps you’ve dusted off some old family recipes and have enjoyed making them together as a family.  You may have researched new recipes to try as well. Some evenings after dinner you may have enjoyed a fun game of Monopoly, but maybe, like me, you’ve also tried some new games that are now favorites as well.  

Which is to say that while our old recipes and games and traditions are a very good thing in our lives, there is always room for new and inviting things that can also find a place to take hold.  And so, as we enter the final quarter of this school year, we begin to look ahead to the enriching, new experiences next year will bring.  

Virtual Student Visits

As shared in Dr. Martirano’s message today, students and families attending a new school for the 2020-2021 school year are invited to a Virtual Student Visit to learn more about their new school. While we wish we could host this visit in person, we are excited for the opportunity to meet and will do our best to ensure we provide our future swans with an engaging visit.  

We hope your child will join us to meet our administrators as well as some current teachers in their next year grade level. Students will also visit our school counselor, meet one of our Related Arts teachers and hear from one of our very own Swansfield students.  As part of their visit, students will also enjoy a virtual tour. Finally, we will share a fun, optional follow-up activity for students to complete afterward.  

Please see the table below for a list of grade-level visit dates and times, as well as the google meet code.

In preparation for your child’s virtual visit, please feel free to share one question your child has about Swansfield HERE by the end of the day on Tuesday, May 12th. 

Parent Consideration Form 

Swansfield staff is very excited for your child to join our school community in the fall.  As shared during our orientation, we are committed to supporting all students as they transition to a new school.  We are asking all families to please complete a Parent Consideration Form in order to provide us with valuable information about your child(ren). Our staff will use this information, in addition to working closely with your child’s current school reviewing academic data, to make class placements for the 2020-2021 school year.  Every effort will be made to ensure no student is placed in a class without peers from his/her current school.  

We look forward to being together soon!  Take care!
