What is the Homework Policy?
Suggested homework to be sent home includes:
Elementary - Phonics/Grammar, Math, and Spelling activities (in each child's folder); suggested reading of 20 minutes every day; occasionally preparation will be needed for special events.
Middle School - Math, Grammar, Spelling activities, any unfinished classroom work, suggested reading of 20 minutes every day, studying for tests/quizzes.
Additional credits may be needed to fulfill graduation requirements for high school students.
ARCA staff can help provide resources should they be needed.
Students are expected to complete work sent home on Thursday afternoons for Homeschool days on Mondays & Fridays. Any Homework sent home during the school week will be work not completed in class or in preparation for an assessment. The teacher will communicate with the parent should this happen. We encourage students to read for 20 minutes each day.
We believe that if students apply themselves throughout the school day, there will not be a need for additional work in the evenings.
The ARCA staff wants to partner with families in their homeschool journey and is available to help and consult if needed.
Do you have a PTO/PTA? No, not by the name of PTO or PTA. Instead, we have opportunities for parents/guardians to volunteer and serve in other ways. If you are interested in learning more, email ashley@aeroridgeca.com.
