Planners


Planners, Planners, Planners!!!!

Many parents ask "How can I know what my child has for homework?" Because the 7th grade team is concerned with helping your child succeed academically, but want to ensure greater accountability of students, we encourage you to check your child's planner EVERYDAY!!!  Planners were distributed on the first day of school, giving students a place to write all assignments.  Students are supposed to write down EVERY H/W assignment in their planner, and write the words "No Homework" if there is no H/W for a specific class.  Parents, this planner allows you to check to see if your chid is actually keeping up with their H/W and allow you to know what content or skills they are learning. If your child is not using his/her planner, then that is a problem.  But if they know that you will be checking everyday, trust me, they will use the planner as it is intended.
