May we celebrate our child's Birthday at School?

Instead of celebrating birthdays at school with treats teachers
will recognize the birthday children during the day and will
honor families by providing a homework pass (not to be used for
studying or reports) to allow families to celebrate together.
Summer birthdays will be recognized the first week we return to
school in January in order to provide time to use the homework pass.

How often will homework be assigned?

Students will receive homework every night but Fridays (unless a 
project is due or a test is scheduled for Monday -- this happens
very rarely). A typical night of homework will include an
assignment in Spelling, Math, and maybe one other subject.
Additionally, We ask that students read at least 15-20 minutes
per night. What they read is entirely up to them. The goal
is to get students reading. The more they enjoy what they are
reading, the more they will read.

When is homework due?

Daily homework is due the day after it is assigned (unless 
otherwise specified. Students are to bring homework to school
wiht them. Many homework items are corrected/collected first
thing in the morning. Of course, students absent due to illness
will be given the necessary time to make up missed assignments.
