HOMEWORK
An important part of your success as a student is dependent upon your ability to study independently. Homework helps to reinforce your understanding of what you have been taught in the classroom.
This student handbook/homework book has been issued to every student at JFK. Its purpose is to teach and encourage the practice of good study skills. Recording your assignments on a daily basis, gives you and your parents the information you need to successfully plan and complete your homework assignments.
Parents should insist that students use this book and check daily assignments. Students who lose their homework book will be able to buy one in the school store for $5.00 .
Departmental homework and testing requirements will be issued in print to each student during the first week of school. These are minimal requirements only. Teachers may require more and are encouraged to do so.
If absent from school, use the Homework Buddy System in the back of the homework book and call a classmate for assignments.
