Homework
Some home study is a necessary part of each student's educational program to reinforce skills taught in the classroom, increase student success, develop student responsibility, and provide opportunity for parent involvement. Planned study eliminates spending an excessive amount of time completing assignments in one sitting. This plan is in accordance with our Fulton County protocols. Homework may count up to 10% of the final grade, but no more.
Homework may be given to students each night (Monday – Thursday)
* Kindergarten: 10 - 20 minutes per night
