Homework
& Evaluation
In order to prepare students to meet the demands of prep school and
college, the School begins to assign homework as early as first grade.
It is understood when parents enroll a child that they are expected
to support their child's commitment to the study program. Homework
assignments may include: completing class work; exercises to reinforce
skills learned and that deepen the understanding of subjects studied;
interpreting, synthesizing, or reconstructing ideas through writing
projects; and problem solving. For younger students, assignments focus
on elementary skills in reading, writing, spelling, and math. As students
advance, the focus shifts up to higher-level thinking skills. Assignments
will vary in length from 30 minutes to two hours for older students.
Grades evaluate student performance in the classroom environment.
There are six grading periods each year. Letter grades are assigned
in all grades from first through the eighth. Students who have been
prepared every day in every subject receive special recognition
on an Honor Roll.
