Homework
Did you know that a part your eagle’s success during the school year will be determined by completion and mastery of home learning assignments? (Moore, 1999)
Here at Lake Forest learning is the objective and learning should be rewarded. Education does not only happen during school hours, home learning serves a purpose and should never be ignored.
Home learning gives parents insight into the school curriculum and offers a greater opportunity for student learning to occur.
Please remember HOME LEARNING IS NOT OPTIONAL, IT IS MANDATORY!
