How long does my child need to read for their reading log?

Students should read 20 minutes each night.  They can pick the 
block on their reading log to complete that best suits what they
just read. All five blocks should be filled in and turned in on
Monday.

When are reading logs to be turned in?

Reading logs are to be turned in each Monday.  Reading logs are 
not due until Monday so that students can read on the weekend if
one night in the week is busy. For example, if Amanda has dance
on Monday and is busy, then don't read Monday night and make up
the night of reading on the weekend.

What can my child do for extra credit?

Currently, extra credit is not given for any subject.  We believe 
grades should be a reflection of what the student has mastered.

Can my child re-take a test?

No, your child can not re-take a test.  Students will know in 
advance when tests are and should be well prepared to do well the
first time.
