The family of the child requesting you fill out this form is considering Tilden School as a possible school for their child. We take great care when adding a new student to an established class, and a new family to our community. As someone familiar with the applicant and their family, your insight will be very helpful in assessing if this transfer would be a good fit for the child, the family, and our school. The information you provide is confidential, not shared with the parent, and not included in the child's permanent record.
We work diligently to balance our resources school-wide so every child, and every class as a group, can thrive. We are able to offer extra curriculum support for a limited number of students with higher levels of need. While we do not discriminate, we do not have the support system to address all needs. It is important for us to understand the type and level of extra support this child may require. Please be candid when answering the following questions.
