Why does the homework sheet need to be signed each night?
I need a signature each night so that I know that your child did their homework and you supervised their progress. Also the homework sheet allows you the opportunity to make comments, suggestions, or ask questions. In the section, WHAT DID YOU DO?, please tell me what you worked on that day.Back to Top

How important is summer reading?
Summer reading ensures that your child will be ready for the next grade and all of challenges of that grade. If your child returns in August and isn't "ready" to begin all the academic activities, he/she will be already behind and trying to catch-up. The best case scenerio is your child is rested and ready to learn and prepared to begin his school year successfully.Back to Top
