Classroom Procedures

1. Unless otherwise notified, Religion tests will be every Monday.

2. Test procedures for SS & Science are all the same. Chapter reviews are assigned 2-3 days before the test and are due the day of the test. These will be reviewed in class the day before the test and a review game will be played that day. Use the chapter review, notes, chapter text, and review game to study for the test.

3. Whether specifically assigned or not, students are responsible for reading each chapter as we are working on it.

4. MORNING WORK is assigned M-Th. It is to be done each day in class and all are due on Fridays. This is not homework and will not be included on the homework board. Students have from 7:50-8:05 daily to work on Morning Work and throughout the day when finished with other classwork.

5. 2009 Syllabus Click here to review policies and procedures.

6. Beginning with 3rd Quarter course grades will be based on 80% Assessment (tests, quizzes, projects, labs, classwork, etc.), 10% Homework (routine practice & review), and 10% REAL (learner preparedness, class participation, etc.).


Parent Information

1. Office hours for parent meetings begin at 3:15 after dismissal. Meetings must be scheduled in advance as teachers have dismissal duty & other time commitments. No meetings can be schedule on Wednesdays due to weekly staff meetings. Please email all meeting requests. Requests will be answered in the order received and should be within 24 hours.

2. Many parent questions or interactions do not require a formal meeting. If you have a short question or two, feel free to email it and/or request a phone call. Calls and email responses can be done during prep periods or right after school.

3. Grades will be posted to Churchwerks weekly, by Wednesdays at 6:00pm. Please remember that tests, essays, and projects may take more than a few days to grade.

4. Please continue to encourage independence for your student. 6th Grade is usually considered a transitional year and our goal is to ensure that your student is ready for junior high. Remind your student to come to class prepared, turn in all assignments on the due date, and to ask for help. We are here to help all your children - they need only ask.


Remember to check student planners for the most up-to-date information on assignments.
