    • HOMEWORK POLICY

    Grades are based on the following percentages:

    90 - 100% = A           80-89% = B               70-79% = C               60-69% = D   0-59% = F

    The following homework policies are in effect:

    1.) Assignments need to be complete by arrival at 9 AM on the due date.

     2.) Work may be redone.

      

    Excused absences will get one make up day for each day missed. For example, if a student is absent on Monday and Tuesday, they will have Wednesday and Thursday as their makeup days and would need to be fully caught up when they arrive Friday.

    Thank you for your continued support. If you have questions, please let me know.

     TEST RETAKES

    Students may NOT retake an open book test.  If a student wishes to retake a test they will need to fill out a test retake form and it will need to be approved by the teacher. 

    POWER SCHOOLS

    Greenbrier Elementary School participates in Power Schools. This provides parents a way to view student grades and attendance throughout the school year by simply logging on to our internet web site and entering your username and password. The web site can be accessed here:

    https://ps.dvusd.org/public/

    Passwords can be signed for at our front office if you need yours. A picture ID is required.

    Grades are updated at least once a week, usually more often. It is a good way for you to get quick feedback on a test or other assignment, and track overall grade averages.  Attendance information is also available on Power Schools.

    I strongly recommend keeping track of your child’s progress throughout the year using this program. As sixth graders, it is also important that they begin tracking their own progress on PowerSchools.

    CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS

    In order to guarantee your child and all the students in our classroom have the excellent learning climate they deserve, we are using the following plan.

     

    Classroom Philosophy:

     

    All students can behave appropriately.

     

    Classroom Rule:

     

    Do not cause a problem for others or ourselves.

     

    Classroom Expectations:

     

    ·        Be respectful

     

    ·        Be responsible

     

    ·        Be safe

     

    Action Plan:

     

    ·        If there is a problem, students will have an opportunity to fix it.

     

    ·        If the student or students are unable to fix the problem, the teacher will do something.
