Homework:                                                                                              

  • reinforces what is learned in school.
  • allows a child to apply himself/herself to a task.
  • teaches time management
  • develops critical thinking.

 

Homework is an obligation, not a matter of choice. Successful completion of homework enhances a child’s quarter grade as a component equally weighted with tests, assessments, projects, and class participation.

 

Participation in sports and other activities should not interfere with homework or with the child’s performance in school. Your child's first responsibility is to be a student and to participate fully in all aspects if his/her school experience.
