Homework
Students, it is YOUR responsibility to write the homework down each day in your binder reminder.  If you are absent, and you need the homework assignment you can do several things:

1) Call a friend who is in the class and get the homework from him or her

2) Email me (however, I may not be able to write you back in time.)

3) When you return ask me what you missed.

When you return from an absence, ALWAYS see me to get the assignments you missed.  Don't be surprised if I ask you to stay in at Brunch or come see me after school so that I can explain to you what you missed.

Parents, if you are wondering what your child's homework is, please check their binder reminder. If you have any questions, or just want to know how your child is doing, feel free to email me.
