Homework Policy

Students are expected to turn in daily homework assignments. If a student does not turn in their homework, they will lose a Dojo point. Missing homework will be recorded on PowerSchool as a zero and marked as “missing” until it is turned in. Missing assignments are due by Friday of each week. Once the assignment is turned in, it will be marked as “late.” Late work is accepted! If an assignment is turned in late, students will lose 10% of that grade.

Math Test Corrections

Students are able to complete corrections on Math chapter assessments in an effort to receive a higher grade! Students may NOT complete corrections on cumulative exams. Students who submit correct corrections will receive 0.5 points back for every 1 point lost. For example, if a student incorrectly answers a 1 point question and submits corrections, they are able to receive +0.5 points back. If they incorrectly answer a 2 point question and submit corrections, they are able to receive +1 point, and so on. 

Corrections are not mandatory unless otherwise stated by the teacher. When completing corrections, the original assignment should not be modified! All corrections should be completed on a separate sheet of paper and stapled to the back of the original assignment. Both the original assignment and the corrections should be turned in together! Test corrections are due the following school day.

Absences

If your child is absent, please contact the office and email me! All absent work will be set aside to be completed when your child returns to school. If your child is going to be absent for an extended period of time, and you would like the work ahead of time, please make the request a week in advance. If you would like the work ahead of time, it is expected that your child will complete the work during their absence and submit it the day of their return.
