6. Classroom Procedures and Expectations
Every morning, students copy their homework into their planners.
Students are required to write their name and number on every assignment, including homework.
Homework is always a review of what is taught in class.
Board Policy:
-Teachers are not allowed to provide homework in advance when vacations are taken when school is in session. We suggest students keep a writing journal and read a book.
-After the 2nd day of an illness, homework may be requested.
Students are expected to read for at least 15 minutes every night. This is part of their homework. Please remember to initial and record the reading minutes in the planner each night.
