REPORT CARDS

Report cards are issued every nine weeks. Please read all information included with the report card and review the report card. Please sign and return the report card the next day.  If the student does not bring the report card home on the date given, please call the school to find out why the student does not have a report card.  Report card dates are listed on the school calendar.  

K Report Card

This is a sample of last year's report card.  Report Cards are currently being revamped and adjusted.  New Reports will be available soon. 

Homework

Our teachers use sound judgment in determining the amount of homework assigned each night. Please notify the principal if your child’s homework consistently takes longer than the allotted time.  Students in grades K-2 will have no more than 30 minutes of nightly homework. Students in grade 3-5 will have no more than 45 minutes of nightly homework. Every student in grades K-5 should read or be read to EVERY NIGHT, including weekends. YOUR TIME IS THE BEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE YOUR CHILD. Reading is a wonderful way to share time and improve your student’s academic skills.  If your child says that they do not have homework, please remind them that they always have reading to do.
