  11. Classroom Rules: • Raise your hand to speak. • Keep your hands and feet to yourself. Respect people’s space and property. • Keep your work area neat and clean. • Be prepared: books, pencils, paper, homework, agenda, nametag. • Be quiet in the halls. • Use table manners and low voices in the cafeteria.

  13. Homework • Homework is listed on the board daily. It is the student’s responsibility to copy these assignments in their planners daily. • Students should not be spending hours on homework. As a parent you need to take an honest look at what your child is doing. Is your child REALLY working or are they daydreaming, doodling or playing? Explain to your child that their only job at that time is doing their homework. Work with your child on time management and planning for longer homework assignments (SPELLING/SCIENCE FAIR). • Parents should check planners DAILY for notes and homework assignments. Students should have each night • Language Arts- which includes 30 minutes reading (Logged and signed), weekly spelling, • Math- Excel and/or math worksheet

  14. Missing Work Policy If a student is out due to illness, students will work with teacher to make up missing assignments by a specified due date. If a student is absent from school, they have one day for every absence to make up work. Any late work will have 10 points taken off for each day it is late.

  15. Projects When projects or long-term assignments are assigned, parents and children need to set up a project completion schedule that will work for you both. Consider how many days are given to complete the task. What other obligations outside of school are you involved in? (sports, church, scouts, etc.) Create a timeline to complete the task. This way your child will not wait until the last minute to complete a two week assignment or project.

  16. TardiesThe School Leadership Team at HES has developed the following Tardy/Early Dismissal Policy… THREE tardies/early dismissals Student is ineligible for perfect attendance award.FIVE tardies/early dismissals A letter requiring parent signature will be sent home.TEN tardies/early dismissals Parents will receive notification and students will forfeit attendance at a Buddy Program.FIFTEEN tardies/early dismissals Parents are required to attend a conference.BEYOND FIFTEEN tardies/early dismissals Students will receive DETENTION in the form of silent lunch and loss of recess for EACH additional tardy/dismissal. This combined time will be spent with a grade level teacher completing missed work.

  17. Tardies Cont…Each month, students who have ZERO tardies or early dismissals may celebrate their accomplishment with HAT DAY! The students will be permitted to wear their favorite hat to school on the last day of each month. Parents can ensure their student will not be tardy by sending them on the bus. Bus riders are never counted tardy!
