Class Policies
Planners
Students are encouraged to use a planner to keep track of daily activities and assignments. It is the student's responsibility to fill out the planner and show it to parents each day. Teachers typically do not check planners unless requested by parents.
Homework
Homework is used primarily for reinforcement, make-up, and/or completion of unfinished classroom assignments. Students should strive to work hard at school; therefore, less homework will be necessary and students will have more time for extracurricular activities and family involvement. Homework is the student’s responsibility. Students may share this work with their parents and seek their help when needed. If students cannot do the assigned work, they should check with the teacher the following day. Students should have a definite time and place for doing schoolwork at home. Turn off the TV at this time and the work will go more quickly. All assignments should be carefully and neatly prepared and turned in on schedule.
Any unfinished work in class will be homework and due the following day unless otherwise specified. Students are required to show all work on assignments.
Your child will be required to finish all work, no matter how late it is. However, assignments that are more than one week late will not receive credit. Please note that when assignments are graded only for completion, late assignments may not be accepted. See your child's teacher for specific grading policies.
Make-Up Work When Absent
Students will have as many days as absent plus one day to complete make-up work. It is the student's responsibility to ask for make-up work when absent.
