What if my child forgets their homework or assignment at home?

Do not bring it to school for them. They need to learn to be responsible for their own actions.

What is the best way to contact Mr. Haaland?

Email is best because it is on all day and I respond to email when I have the opportunity. Calls can be 
distracting and take up a lot of time.

How do I access my child's grades on the internet?

Refer to the information that you were given by the office. You need a user name and password to 
access, so check with the office to get the information to access this information.

How are tests and quizzes weighted?

Because tests and quizzes are really the backbone of any grading system, quizzes and tests are given 
more weight. Most quizzes will be anywhere from 25 to 50 points. Chapter and unit tests are equal to 
+/- 100 points.

End of grading period conferences.

Please monitor your child's work on a weekly basis by looking at returned assiggnments and monitoring 
the PIV system. By doing so, you have a good overview of how your child is performing academically in 
class and it prevents surprises at the end of the quarter necessitating your need for a last minute 
conference at the end of the grading period.
