6th Grade Homework Policy

Late homework may be turned in the next day and receive 80% of the earned grade; work that is turned in after this may receive 50% of the earned grade. Some students may be encouraged or asked to attend Homework Club during lunch recess to get caught up. This is the policy for all sixth-grade classes.

Your child's grades are entered directly into Skyward. Please double check the grade online is the same as the grade on the paper. Should you notice any discrepancies, please reach out. I encourage you and your child to check grades weekly so any missing assignments or lower grades can be reconciled as soon as possible.
