BUS DELAYS
There are three main reasons for bus delays including inclement weather, doubled routes and mechanical breakdowns. If the bus is delayed for any reason, the driver will follow their delay procedures and families will be notified by phone. If families cannot be reached, please contact the school for information or to report a delay.

Bus students who are waiting for their bus to arrive must line up single file behind the yellow line.

All bus riders must wait for their driver to be present before boarding.

Such items include but are not limited to sticks, breakables, weapons, or large, bulky items that cannot be held or placed under the bus storage area.
HOMEWORK
The school district believes that homework is a constructive tool in teaching/learning process when geared to the needs and abilities of students. Purposeful assignments not only enhance student achievement but also develop self-discipline and positive working habits. As an extension of the classroom, homework must be planned and organized; must be viewed as purposeful to the students; and must be evaluated and returned to students in a timely manner.
Homework may be assigned for one or more of the following purposes:
-
Internal review of classwork
-
Ongoing practice of classwork
-
Extended practice for students needing extra help or for students who are accelerated.
All homework assigned must fit the needs of the individual student and must be fair and differentiated.
Family Responsibilities-
-
Families are expected to support the homework policy;
-
Families are expected to notify their child(ren)’s teacher(s) in the event that:
-there are problems with completion of the homework
-homework completion is frequently taking longer than the minimum requirement of 30 minutes or
-students indicate that they do not have homework
Teacher Responsibilities-
-
Teachers will publish the homework policy in their classroom newsletters in September of each year and as often as necessary to inform families;
-
Teachers will make every effort to make homework predictable and self-explanatory;
-
Teachers are NOT encouraged to assign computer-dependent homework in the event that families do not have access to such resources;
-
Teachers will inquire as to how much time homework assignments are actually taking students so that quantity can be adjusted;
-
Teachers are expected to connect families with the resources necessary for student success with homework completion such as involvement in the school program, mentor program, success team, etc.
STUDENT RECORDS / FERPA
The students and parents of students of the district have the right of confidentiality in regard to student records. Therefore, no one, other than the administration, the teaching staff, the student him/herself, or the student’s parent/guardian may review a student folder (on a need to know basis) unless prior written permission has been granted by the child’s parent/guardian or the child him/herself (if over 18 years of age). Lists of students, addresses, and/or parents will not be given out.
If parents or adult students believe something in the file is inaccurate, misleading or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights, they may request that it be corrected or attach comments to the record.
School Employees have a legal obligation to keep all matters involving students and their families private and confidential.
