Homework Guidelines

Dear Parents - 

Your child will receive daily homework Monday through Thursday.  ELA homework 
will include reading, practicing vocabulary, spelling words, and ELA skill 
practice.  Also, there will be daily Math practice.  Social Studies 
vocabulary and comp. questions, and occasional Science work will also be 
assigned.  A detailed daily schedule will be sent home with each child in 
their LMS Homework Tracker.  In addition - studying and project work will be 
ongoing.

Homework Guidelines:

Homework is an integral part of your child's education.  It provides the 
daily practice and reinforcement necessary for excellence.  I expect homework 
to be completed on time on a daily basis to the best of your child's 
ability.  I encourage you to work with your child as necessary to complete 
their work to promote neatness, correctness, understanding, and to keep you 
abreast of what content is currently being covered.  Please let me know of 
any difficulties your child experiences with the content and I will be happy 
to find additional time to assist them.  

1.  All homework should be completed daily and ready to be handed in at the 
    appropriate time.  
2.  Students with incomplete assignments will be kept in for lunch 
    detention.  They will complete a "Homework " form which will be brought 
    home to be signed and returned.  They will use the remainder of the time 
    to work on the owed assignment.  The form will show if it was completed 
    or not by the end of the period.
3.  Students will have TWO days to make up an assignment and earn a maximum 
    grade of 75%.  If the assignment is NOT received by the second day the 
    student will recieve a zero.
3.  If there are extenuating circumstances due to illness, etc. the time will 
    be extended as necessary .

Thank you for your assistance !  Together we can make this school year very 
productive and rewarding for your child.
Respectfully,
Mr. Sostak
