Below is the Kennedy Middle School Work Expectation.  This is published in the information 
for students packet that every student receives the beginning of the year and is thoroughly reviewed 
in each of their classes.
  
	Work Expectation:
	
	*  All school papers must be headed with the students name, 
           date and class in the upper right hand corner.

*  Work must be handed in on time.  Late work will usually 
           not be accepted unless arrangements are made with the teacher.

*  Students are responsible for contacting teachers for 
           missed homework whenever they are absent from class for any reason.

Research shows that students who complete their math homework in a timely 
manner, trying all the problems, reading the instructions, and showing their 
work have a greater level of understanding and success in mathematics.   It is 
imperative that students complete their homework so as to give themselves 
every advantage in the classroom and on state tests.  The material we cover 
in 7th & 8th grade is critical for their mathematical success in high school.

You will usually receive math assignments (homework) Monday through Thursday 
nights.  Generally, there is no homework on testing days or Fridays.  You will need 
to take your book home every night or access the math book online.  Read the short 
lesson before you start the homework.   Homework is to be completed before 
returning for the next class period.  We will usually correct and review the homework 
in class the next day.
         
                 ALL PROBLEMS NEED TO BE ATTEMPTED !!  
                     YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK !!

Work must be handed in on time.  Late work will not usually be accepted.  You 
are responsible for contacting me for missed work whenever you are absent 
from class for any reason.  Homework sent home for completion under the above 
criteria, may be turned in up to three school days late if the student misses 
class because of illness OR preplanned absence OR has a PERMIT TO EXTEND 
DEADLINE.  Permits are issued to each student each semester, for throughout 
that semester, or for bonus credit at the end of the semester.

Any work turned in after 3 days will recieve no more than 50% credit.  Any work turned in after the 
concept test will recieve no more than 10% credit.  Any work turned in over two weeks late will 
recieve no more than 1% credit.

Homework is to be completed in a spiral notebook, in pencil, and corrected in blue or black ink.

Homework counts as 30% of your grade.

All papers must be headed with your name, date, and lesson number in the upper right hand corner.
