          Homework will only be given when necessary, and will always be meaningful.  The purpose of homework is to reinforce important skills and strategies taught in class.  Mrs. Stone and Mrs. Hill will work together to ensure avoidance of homework overload.  The homework policy is stated as follows:

·         Homework is expected to be turned in on time.  (Emergencies will be taken into account on an individual basis.) 

·         If homework is late the student will have the choice of completing it during recess or having his/her name and a check mark placed in the discipline notebook.  The check mark will be erased if homework is turned in by the next day.
