Homework is important

Below you will see the details of a new initiative to increase homework completion. If you already do all your homework, just keep doing what you do!

Scholars now have time to work on homework in homeroom.
Scholars expected to be working to complete homework/class assignments
Scholars may work with other scholars as long as they stay focused
Homeroom teacher reserves the right to make study hall silent
Scholars who do not have homework, must first show their homeroom teacher all completed assignments, then they may read their SSR book or work on an enrichment activity
Scholars may seek help from another teacher – the scholar MUST have gotten a pass from the teacher they wish to see, prior to the start of SSR. Scholars will not be allowed to leave their homeroom without a pass. Scholars must be in the teacher’s room where they are seeking help by the time the bell rings, and must remain there for the remainder of the period.

Teachers will take class time so scholars can write down their homework assignments.
Scholars who are missing their agenda book may purchase a new one for $5

If a scholar does not turn in his/her homework, he/she will be given a homework hall slip and must report to homework hall that day after school.
In homework hall, the scholar will work on any incomplete homework assignments for that day.
Scholars who do not attend a required homework hall will receive a disciplinary consequence

Scholars who successfully complete their homework will receive a ticket that can be turned in to their homeroom teacher. Points will be awarded to homerooms based on the number of tickets they accumulate every week.
Other awards/recognition will take place to recognize those who are doing great!
Tickets may be turned in for weekly raffles
