Student Planners
To encourage the development of organizational and study skills, all students are required to use the provided student planner, and parents must review and initial the planner each evening
.
Homework
Homework will be assigned at the teacher’s discretion. No homework will be specifically assigned to be completed on a Wednesday night, as it may interfere with church attendance.

Delinquent and incomplete homework will affect the student’s grade.

Lost assignments are not the responsibility of the teacher. Although students may claim to have turned in an assignment, credit cannot be given when the teacher cannot confirm ever having received the assignment.

Tests and Quizzes
All tests and quizzes are to be taken on the day they are scheduled. Missed tests and quizzes due to illness or family emergency must be rescheduled to be taken within two days or at the teacher’s discretion. (Note concerning the illness from a parent is required). However, students should come to class prepared to take the missed test or quiz on the day of their return to class - missed tests and quizzes due to non-emergency situations will be administered the day the student returns to class.

An Incomplete issued at the end of a grading period due to missing test must be completed within a week of issuing the report card. Incompletes at the end of a school year will be satisfied by averaging existing grades and issuing a final grade no better than a “C”.Progress Reports and Report Cards.

Progress Reports
Progress reports will be sent home with students at the midpoint of each of the nine-week marking periods. The progress report is designed to lay the groundwork for areas of concern, either academically or behaviorally. It is a form of communication that gives parents and teachers time to give attention to any problems prior to the issuing of the report card.

First quarter report cards will be given to parents at parent/teacher conferences. Second, third and fourth quarter report cards will be sent home with students, unless a parent/teacher conference is requested.

All progress reports and report cards must be signed by a parent or guardian and returned to the student’s teacher.

In the event that a student’s academic performance suddenly and drastically declines, the parent can expect to be notified within 5 school days of the onset of the noted change in performance. The teacher will notify the principal as well.
