Homework Reminder:
School planners are filled out at the end of each period listing any homework that needs to be completed, as well as upcoming tests.  A "Homework Calendar," posted within the classroom, is also filled out daily listing any homework that was assigned.  If a student is absent it is his/her reponsibility to check the calendar upon their return.  Any papers that may have been distributed are on a clipboard located next to the Homework Calendar. Each child should have at least two study buddies written within their student planner to contact as well.  A student has the same number of days that they were absent to complete their missing work.
