HOMEWORK
Given daily Monday-Thursday Unless it has been a snow week or something out of the ordinary, I do not give homework on Friday
Homework should not be a list of answers; explain thinking
After School Tutoring
There are no funds available for after school tutoring at this time.
If a student needs help, I am available some afternoons, but not on a consistent basis.
Student should solicit the help. Parent should never force a student to come or it will be a waste of my time and theirs.
