Welcome to the 2025-26 School Year

Welcome to the 2025-26 School Year
Posted on 08/19/2025

Class placements and beginning-of-year C'Port forms will be sent on Friday, August 22nd. Class placements at Cambridgeport are the result of a thoughtful, team-based process that considers a wide range of factors, including academics, social maturity, gender balance, special education needs, and peer relationships. Our goal is to create well-balanced classes where every student can thrive and succeed.

Because these lists are carefully crafted, we’re unable to accommodate requests for changes. Even one adjustment can disrupt the balance for an entire grade. Rest assured, our experienced teachers are well-equipped to support all students.

We understand that transitions can be emotional. Your response to your child’s placement can strongly influence how they feel. If they’re disappointed, reassure them with confidence and help them focus on the positives—new friends, new opportunities, and a great year ahead. Thank you for your support in helping your child start the year strong.

Parent/ Teacher Listening Sessions
