Homework is posted each Friday for the following week to allow flexibility in
your time management. Homework is due the next day unless noted. Warning: Do
not wait until the night before a multiple day assignment is due to get started!
It is wise to do vocab cards the weekend before you read, or as you read.
Note, it is extremely important for Junior High students to complete work on
time as we do not accept late work. If there are issues, please go directly
to the teacher so we can assist.
