Communicate with the Teachers

Best way to communicate with the teachers is through email or ParentSquare.

Both you and your student should check your email regularly, as teachers and counselors use this for communication.

Create A Homework Routine

  • Have your student write down homework and upcoming tests/quizzes/ projects in their Student Planner.

​

  • Create a quiet space for your student to do their homework.

  • School only gets harder when you stay home too much.�
  • Missing 10% of school, or about 15 days, negatively affects your grades.

That’s just two days a month and that’s known as chronic absenteeism.
