St. Junipero Serra Catholic School

Dear Parents,

As we continue to partner with you to provide a high-quality Catholic education for your child, we are pleased to share with you our survey for the 2020 - 2021 academic year. Learning more about your child's personality and learning style will better ensure proper homeroom placement by our educational team. Gathering additional information regarding your past curriculum experiences will help us to tailor our plan for academic excellence for all students. Thank you for taking time to complete this information about your student. 

Grade Level Considerations:
Please note, in Second Grade the students are in homeroom for most of the school day. The top Math students will be placed in an Advanced Plus Math class of a maximum of 20 students.  The top English Language Arts students will be placed in an Advanced Plus English Language Arts class of a maximum of 20 students.    Those students who need a Small Group Accommodated setting will be placed in a class of no more than 10 students for Math and/or English Language Arts.   You will be notified of an Advanced Plus or Small Group Accommodated placement before school begins in August via a letter from the school.  Those students who do not qualify for the Advanced Plus or Small Group Accommodated classes will remain with the homeroom teacher who will differentiate instruction based on the students' needs. Each Second Grade classroom will have an instructional assistant to help with differentiating instruction.  
Second grade students will have other grade level teachers who will provide instruction for specialty classes including physical education, art, music, Spanish, and STEAM (Creativity Lab).
