Homework
Homework
The only homework expectation for students is that a student reads for 20 minutes each day. Expectations:
Parents and students are responsible for establishing a reading habit every day, for example before bedtime.
Parents and/or Boys and Girls Club staff are responsible for signing and returning reading sheets.
Research:
Research shows that students who habitually read each day become better readers.
Reading increases Fountas, Plnnell, and WY-Topp scores, vocabulary development and background knowledge.
If you have questions regarding homework, please contact your child’s teacher.
Club Expectation
Club Expectation
We have many Journey students and not enough club spots for all. If your child is absent three or more days of the school club, then they will be dropped. Their spot will be filled from the waiting list.
Children must be picked up no more than fifteen minutes after the club ending time.
Late pick up policy:
First late pick up is a warning.
Second late pick up, the CPD (Casper police department) will be called and the student will not be allowed to return to the club.
If a parent is running late, they are required to contact the teacher to inform them of the situation.
Book Fines
Book Fines
A student may go to the library with the teacher’s permission any time as long as he or she can follow the rules and maintain acceptable behavior. Our library contains many volumes of resource materials to aid each student with the completion of assignments. There are many fiction and non-fiction books to use for required reading or simply reading for enjoyment.
Library books are checked out for a period of one week. The book may be renewed once. If the book is not returned, the child who checked it out may not check out another book until the missing book is returned or paid for. No reference materials may be removed from the library without permission.
All textbooks and library books are loaned to students free of charge and are available for parent inspection. However, students are responsible for lost or damaged books and will be expected to pay for them. Students are urged to take good care of books to avoid a fee at the end of the year. Replacement cost will be charged for lost and damaged books. The money will be refunded if the book is found. Authorized school personnel may assess a fine for unusual wear or damage to a text or library book.
Clothing & Dress Code
Clothing & Dress Code
Please see to it that all clothing is properly marked with your child’s name and grade so that these items can be returned if lost. Please refer to the NCSD policy on dress and appearance for district-wide guidelines to the right.
Please make note that heelies will no longer be allowed on school grounds. Due to the following reasons:
Students use them indoors which has caused damage to carpets and other surfaces
Students have not followed the rules or been respectful when asked to stop using heelies in the building
Students have run into others and fallen which is a safety concern
If students wear heelies to school, they will be directed to call home for a parent or guardian to bring them appropriate footwear.
