ABSENCES When your child is absent, she or he is responsible for making up the work missed. Students will have the opportunity to make up the work during "Homework Help" or for homework. It is the students' responsibility to askfor missing work. Students have the same number of days to make up their work as they were gone. For example, John missed 3 days of class, he has 3 days after the day he returned to complete all make up work. Regular attendance is important to your child’s success as much of what we do in class cannot be made up at home.
BIRTHDAYS Students are welcome to bring a snack to share with the class to celebrate their birthdays during the quarterly class parties. As per the district’s wellness policy, we ask that your try to make snacks that are healthy choices. I do ask that you try to send either pre-cut or individually packaged treats. Snacks will be shared during our silent reading period to avoid disrupting any instructional time.

EFFORT Students are expected to always do their best work, including the use of their best handwriting. Students will be given the opportunity to correct low scores to show that they understand what was being taught. Students will also be sent to "Homework Help" if they do not complete an assignment in class.
GRADING Grades are reported several times throughout the year. You will receive midterm grades approximately half way through each term. Please sign the midterm grades and return them to school so that I will know you have seen them. 100 - 90% = A 89 - 80% = B 79 - 70 % = C 69- 60%= D 59 - 0% = F
HOMEWORKStudents will be assigned homework. Please check the agenda in the students planner nightly to make sure all assignments are completed. On average students should be able to finish their assignments in 15 to 20 minutes. This does not include their reading minutes. Should your child seem to be spending more time on their assignments, please contact me so that we can be certain to address any problems that may be going on.
