The 2025-2026 school year planning has begun! To assist in this process, we  invite you to provide some information about your child using the form below. Completion of this form is optional.

Your child's current and upcoming classroom teachers work together with specialists and the grade-level team, including administrators, to prepare class assignments for the next school year. They will review this form and consider the information relevant to the class assignment. Providence has an incredible staff! Please do not request a specific teacher. Please submit by May 16.  Please know that input from forms turned in over the summer are difficult to honor since the grouping process may have already started.
