Homework in the Middle School Homework assignments are designed by each teacher to be appropriate for the grade level and subject matter being taught. The length and type of assignments will vary from class to class.
Long range assignments, projects and research papers become more prevalent at this level and require more careful budgeting of student’s time. When no specific written assignment is due, students are expected to review their material and/or to read independently. Students are encouraged to develop good study habits by budgeting their time properly, reading independently, and using a suitable place to study in the home. When students are absent for short periods of time, it is their responsibility to make up missing assignments and
tests. For long absences when class work is needed, please contact the Middle School Counselor's Office.
Homework is an important extension of class work. Parental cooperation and supervision is an essential part of establishing good homework habits. Parents should expect students to bring home textbooks every day. If you do not see books or evidence of work at home, please contact the school as homework is regularly given. |
