At-Home Daily Snapshot

Students complete work at home following grids, or lesson plans assigned by their teachers.

Parents can see what their students studied in class on the previous day and then complete assignments at home.

Teachers are required to set work hours during home days so students and parents are able to get help as needed during their home days.

On average, students should spend no more than 3-5 hours on homework during their home days.

Students bring home binders daily with their grids and assignments so they have what they need for each home day and then turn their assignments in when they come back to school.
