Tutoring: Tutoring is available Tuesday morning at 7:15 am and Thursday afterschool until 3:30 pm.
Homework: Homework is very important to success in mathematics. It will be used as a tool to reinforce daily
concepts and/or to explain your application skills used in class. As a result, homework will be checked and assessed as
an effort grade. Students will be encouraged to write their assignments down in a planner.
Quizzes: Lesson quizzes and warm-up quizzes will be given periodically as a review over previously covered material.
What to Bring: Math Textbook, Interactive Notebook (spiral or composition notebook), pencil, and a folder or binder to
keep worksheets in.

Daily Grades 30% - Homework, Quizzes, and Classwork
