Our class mission is to create independent learners who are well prepared
for the future. In order to develop into successful sixth grade students,
the children should follow our classroom policies.
Homework: An assignment should be passed in the day it is due. If it is
not in class at the time of review it is considered late. It can be passed
in one day late for half credit. It will be marked as a zero if it is more
than one day late. Homework should always be neat and done in cursive when
necessary.
Long term and nightly assignments: Students are responsible for completing
all assignments and for making parents aware of the work.
Cursive: The majority of our work is done in cursive and complete sentences are used.
Absences: Students are responsible for all class work and homework missed
due to an absence.
Agenda Book: Students are responsible for bringing agenda booklets to class
and for accurately recording assignments and due dates.
Grades: Students are responsible for showing parents/guardians their
grades. Anything marked with a check minus is to be redone.
