How is homework assigned?

Homework is assigned in different ways. Some teachers will give an assignment every night (usu ally giving students some class time to begin their assignment), while other teachers may tend to assign more project type homework in which students need to do some work each night to finish by the due date. Some teachers assign both types of homework. The amount of homework increases with each grade, i.e. 8 th grade students will naturally have more homework than 5 th grade students. Students who are absent need to make up their assignments. Upon returning to school after an absence, it is the student’s responsibility to check with the teacher to see what work he/she needs to make up.

What happens if a teacher talks while teaching?

Smaller and first time infractions of school rules (i.e. talking while the teacher is teaching, goofing off in class) will often be handled by the teacher. More serious and repeated offences will result in a discipline referral to school administration, either to the campus supervisors, school dean, or principal. Consequences include warnings, after school and lunch detentions, campus clean-up, periods of ICE, suspension from school, or expulsion from the school district.

How many quarters are there in a school year?

For purposes of evaluating student progress, the school year is divided into four quarter s for 6-8 th grade and three trimesters for 5 th grade. Students will receive a report card at the end of each quarter or trimester. Students will also receive written communication from the school if the student is failing or near failing, or not meeting standards. For any additional information regarding student progress, parents should leave a message for a specific teacher to phone or email them. 6-8 th grade students and families have access to Edline, which has all student grades available online.
