Student Placement Input:

Here at Columbia we carefully assign students to classes considering academic, behavior and social needs. This is a team effort and each team makes it a priority to place your child with a teacher who best fits your child’s learning style and needs. If you would like to provide input to this process, an online parental input form is available. Please know that we cannot accommodate requests for specific teachers. Completing the form is optional. Submissions are due by Friday, May 1st.

Keep in mind, your child’s current teacher will receive this input and present it to the placement team. Please click the link here and use this form only. Please avoid letters, calls or emails for placement purposes. If you need help with the form please email Taressa in our front office:
