Homework Policy
Homework is typically assigned Monday through
Thursday. Students are expected to write their
homework in their assignment books each day, and
the most current and up-to-date information can be
found there. I will do my best to post homework
weekly on Progress Book. If a child does not have
their homework completed, they will be given a late
grade and will be expected to complete the missing
work. A note will be written in their assignment
book. A parent is also expected to sign the notebook
each night to be checked the next morning.
