Homework

Classroom assignments are normally given following the introduction of skills and concepts presented. Usually students will be given a sample time within the classroom to complete most of the work assigned. Students are expected to complete unfinished work as homework for the following day. Other homework may be assigned routinely. In addition to the daily work, especially in the intermediate grades, other special projects or assignments may be given to reinforce skills or enhance the educational process. Usually such homework should not exceed thirty minutes to one hour.

Reading, either by the individual student or being read to orally by parents or siblings, on a nightly basis is highly encouraged.

Make-up Work

Normally when a student is absent for one day, he or she may obtain and complete the necessary make-up work the following day. This procedure helps the student learn independence and responsibility. If the child is absent for an extended period, it may be necessary for parents to pick up assignments or make-up work for the child. Parents should call the school the afternoon before, but no later than the beginning of school the day they wish to pick up work. Every effort will be made to have the materials ready.
