5.  Parents can help students by checking the online communication book for internet links, key vocabulary words and worksheets.  If your child’s score is lower than expected it is most likely due to missing work/assignments. We have the homeroom TAs supporting in Science to help students be responsible for handing in their work.

6.  To help students understand that their in class work has value and is important the daily notes will NOT be uploaded to the online communication book.  If your child is absent for some reason you can contact the TA or myself to help your child get notes or worksheets.
