ATTENDANCE IS VITAL!
We want to see your child in class. School attendance is the #1 indicator of school success! Please help your child arrive to school on time every day to avoid interruptions to the class and to their learning.
Call the attendance line at 909-443-7216 and select number “1” for Ranch View or,
Send a note with your child on the day he returns to school or,
The excuse should include: 1. Date of absence, 2. Student Name, 3. Teacher Name 4. Reason for absence
State law requires absence verification. Absences not cleared within five (5) days from the date of the absence will be marked as "Unexcused"
FYI: When a parent takes their child out of school early, for reasons not acceptable as excused for longer than a 30-minute period more than three times during the year, that child becomes a truant. All absences must be verified or the absence becomes an unexcused absence or truancy. (San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools)
Please reach out to your child’s teacher anytime you have questions or concerns.
Here are some ways parents can help children at home with homework:
Create a conducive environment: Ensure that there's a quiet and well-lit area designated for homework. Minimize distractions such as TV, phones, or loud noises.
Establish a routine: Set a regular time each day for homework. Consistency helps children get into the habit of doing their homework without procrastination.
Be available for assistance: Let your child know that you're available to help if they have questions or get stuck on a problem. However, avoid doing the work for them; instead, guide them through the problem-solving process.
Encourage independence: Teach your child problem-solving skills and encourage them to try solving problems on their own before seeking help. Foster a sense of independence and self-reliance.
Provide resources: Make sure your child has access to necessary materials such as textbooks, notebooks, pencils, and a computer if needed.
Offer praise and encouragement: Recognize your child's efforts and accomplishments, no matter how small. Positive reinforcement can motivate them to continue working hard.
Stay informed: Keep in touch with your child's teachers to understand the homework assignments and any areas where your child may be struggling. This allows you to provide more targeted support.
Break tasks into manageable chunks: If a homework assignment seems overwhelming, help your child break it down into smaller, more manageable tasks. This can prevent them from feeling overwhelmed and improve their focus.
Model good study habits: Let your child see you reading, writing, and engaging in activities that require critical thinking. Children often mimic the behaviors they see in adults.
Encourage a balanced lifestyle: Ensure that your child has time for homework, extracurricular activities, socializing, and relaxation. A balanced lifestyle is essential for overall well-being and academic success.
Communicate with your teachers: Homework is on opportunity to review, reinforce, and demonstrate an understanding of what has been learned in class. It is not meant to be a horrible daily battle. Please communicate with your teacher if you have questions or concerns about what homework time looks like in your home.
By implementing these strategies, parents can provide effective support for their child's homework while fostering independence and a positive attitude towards learning.
