Parent Commitments at Home and at School
1. Parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring that the student completes his/her homework on time and turns it in to the teacher.
Homework is assigned to reinforce lessons taught during the school day. Students will either receive a weekly homework schedule or will be responsible for recording their own homework assignments. Homework will generally require 15-30 minutes to complete in primary grades and may require as much as two hours by the time your child has reached 6th grade.
2. Parents/guardians are responsible for participating in Homeside Activities.
Teachers will assign Homeside Activities for you and your child to complete together at home. Activities include short conversations, interviews, and conversations with your child.
