Homework Policy
Homework is an important part of your child’s school experience. It serves to develop individual study skills and responsibility while reinforcing skills and concepts. Homework is a specific task assigned by the teacher to be completed during non-school hours. Your child will benefit greatly from your support and encouragement at home.
Parents can play a positive role in homework routine by:
*Allowing your child to work independently or with assistance.
*Ensuring that there is time set aside to complete homework.
*Ensuring that the environment is conducive to work and study.
*Informing teachers if your child is encountering ongoing difficulties carrying out homework tasks.
*Monitoring homework by signing the homework planner on a daily basis.
Policy:
*All homework must be properly headed (name, date)
*Homework that is handed in without a name will not be accepted.
*Homework written in pencil is preferred; Pens in black or blue are only accepted; no other colors.
*Homework is due on assigned date.
*Students will have one day for every day they are absent to make up class work and homework.
The goal is to establish good habits of study, concentration and self-discipline, which will serve students for the rest of their lives. Please read and discuss the above policy with your child.
Remember:
ONLY blue or black ink are acceptable.
Part of completing homework is putting in back in your book bag with your homework book and folder!!!!
