MVSD Homework Policy grades 2 - 3 - Up to 30 minutes of homework may be assigned per day.
Homework at this level is intended to build basic foundational skills, including literacy skills, that allow students to be successful in future years. It also builds responsibility and holds student's accountable for their own learning.
Please help by providing a quiet, distraction-free place for homework time. Set limits on homework time. Help your student understand the value of work/life balance. Be sure to balance homework with play, fresh air, and fun!

Parent-Teacher Conferences:
Parent-Teacher conferences are held at regularly scheduled intervals throughout the year. These conferences are intended to keep parents fully informed of student progress, achievement, and any problems or concerns of mutual importance to both teachers and parents. We encourage you to attend these conferences, as they are very valuable to you, your student and your student’s teacher. California law recognized that as a parent you may request time off from your employer to attend parent conferences. Conferences can also be arranged on an as-needed basis with your child’s teacher.
