Homework

  • Homework will be assigned daily. Students will be responsible for keeping a record of their assignments and for completing them on time. Each student will be given a planner. Assignments will be posted in each room for the students to copy into their planners. Late assignments will lose points or be completed during recess. Students may go out to recess once the assignment has been adequately completed. Parents will be notified should missing work become an issue. Absent students will be given time to make up assignments.
