Why did my child have lunch detention?

There are three main reasons why students receive lunch detention.  A: not 
completing homework assignments, B: not bringing supplies to class, C: 
tardiness (coming to class late).

Why does the science textbook stay at the house?

I have a classroom set of books to use during the school day.  Your child 
has been issued a textbook that can remain at home all year, to use for 
homework.
