• Math Placement Appeal Process

     

    Appropriate math placement is one of the most critical tasks for the Math Department. The department takes very careful consideration when placing students. Short and long term student comprehension, confidence, and academic success are fundamental to our placement philosophy. We want our students to not only pass their math classes, but to excel in all ways while they enjoy mathematics to the greatest extent possible. Moving at a suitable pace is crucial to ensuring their longitudinal success.

    Mill Valley School District does have a placement appeal process:  

    (1)  Parents fill out the Math Placement Appeal Form and submit it to the MVMS office or by email to jpalmer@mvschools.org by Thursday, June 5 no later than 4:00 p.m. 
     
    (2)  A committee comprised of math teachers and administrators review the request and make a decision.
     
    (3)  Parents receive a written response.
