Homework Partners

Parents can do their part to improve homework when they:

1. Cooperate with the school to make homework effective.
2. Provide their child with suitable study conditions (desk or table, lights, books, and supplies).
3. Reserve a time for homework and turn off the television.
4. Encourage their child, but avoid undue pressure.
5. Show interest in what their child is doing, but do not do the work for him/her.
6. Understand that the school expects homework to be completed and returned on time.
