Homework Policy

There will be homework Monday through Thursday.  Students should spend approximately 40-50 minutes each night on homework.  Each night your child should be reading a chapter book close to their level for 30 minutes and completing a short written response. In addition to the daily reading assignment, they will be also receiving a math assignment at the beginning of each week that will be due by Friday. There will be no homework over the weekend other than if a long-term project has been assigned.  All assignments are explained in detail in school, and should only be reminded of their homework, but are ultimately responsible for making sure they have all of the materials needed before they leave school.  We have a special folder to help the students be as organized as possible.  The folder should be brought to and from school each day.  Students will have an opportunity to earn prizes and privileges for completing their work on time.
