Homework - Parents play a critical role in their child's schoolwork.  To help ensure your child's success, practice math facts, use a calendar, practice coin recognition and, most importantly, READ TO AND WITH YOUR CHILD.

SECOND GRADE

Homework - Our team encourages daily reading, frequent parent read-alouds, home preparation for weekly spelling tests, and the study of math facts.  Homeroom teachers will notify you of particular assignment policies.

THIRD GRADE

Homework -  We initiate responsibility through homework and special projects throughout the school year.  A homework policy statement is sent home by each teacher at the beginning of each school year.  A minimum of 15 minutes of sustained silent reading or family read aloud is encouraged every night along with any other homework that your child's teacher assigns.  If there are any questions about homework, please contact your child's teacher.

FOURTH GRADE

Homework - Approximately 45-60 minutes of homework can be expected Monday through Thursday.  Homework is an important means of communication between the home-school connection. Parental support and cooperation is appreciated.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your child's teacher.

FIFTH GRADE

Homework - On the average, homework should take between 1-1 1/2 hours every evening.  If you have questions concerning homework, please contact your child's teacher.
