Over the past few weeks, I have seen a big increase in student difficulty with timeliness – both in their timely completion of homework and in their timely arrival at school.  Please help your child to make sure that he or she is completing his or her homework every night and that the completed assignments make their way into school in the morning.  Click here for a reminder of the Gr. 4 policy on homework completion.  Homework should ALWAYS be recorded in the student’s homework planner.  If he or she has lost his or her planner, please consider buying him or her a new agenda from an office store so that he or she doesn’t need to write assignments on random sheets of paper.

It’s also VERY important that your child arrives to school ON TIME each morning. School starts promptly at 8:50 AM, and students who arrive late are marked tardy. Remember, our morning work is intended to be a review of recently learned material, or a preparation for new learning.  So when your child arrives to school late, he or she is missing important learning opportunities.
