Welcome Families: School Agenda and Homework Policy Overview for 2014

Welcome to our school community! This agenda outlines key daily homework requirements and our homework policy. Students will fill in their agendas daily, with checks varying throughout the year to foster independence. Homework is assigned every day except Fridays, with unfinished classwork becoming homework. A redo work policy allows students to improve grades. We will also provide bi-weekly progress reports for students struggling academically. Stay informed via our Classroom Blog and communication tools like Remind 101 and ClassDojo for updates and insights.
