The staff at Father Leonard Van Tighem have worked hard to develop class lists to create rich educational environments for all the students. A lot of thought goes into the making of homeroom classes to ensure a balanced classroom. As a team, we discuss:
- Student needs
- Educational Assistant supports
- The male/female ratio
- Academic balance
- Behaviour needs
- Number of students in classes
- Student relationships with other students
- New students joining FLVT
To help for a smooth transition to the new school year, class lists will be posted in the gathering space at Father Leonard Van Tighem School on Friday, August 31 by 10:00 am. We hope this helps with any student anxiety about the first day.
Also, I ask parents to be patient with any classroom change requests. Parent requests make it difficult to keep the classes balanced. Please contact me in mid-September if you find there is still a need to request a change.
Thank you for having your children at Father Leonard Van Tighem School. We are looking forward to a terrific 2018-19 school year.

Thank you for the information, my kids will be happy to know before the actual first day back and your right it does help with the transition as a new student with anxiety. Could you not post the classes online and save us a trip down to the school?
Thanks for the reply, Tracey. Due to privacy concerns, we cannot post class lists online. Sorry.
Thanks for the information.
Have a good year at your new school Creg 🙂
You too Elia
