About Our School - Family, School and Student Policies - Homework

At LCCS, we believe that homework is an essential opportunity for students to practice skills they have been taught during school. The more confident and comfortable students are with their skills, the more than can contribute and progress with their learning. Homework is also viewed as a bridge between home and school, giving students an opportunity to share their work with and involve family members.

Parents are responsible for monitoring and assisting with homework assignments of their child. Students will be assigned homework by the child’s teacher at least three days per week.

Each child should attempt to complete homework independently, but may need assistance. IF you child needs assistance, please do not do his or her homework for him/her. As a parent, guide your child in doing the best that he or she can, allowing them to do their own work.

When homework is not completed, consequences will be enforced. Incomplete homework is excused only with appropriate documentation from a parent or a caregiver, indicating that illness or other circumstances prevented the student from completing his/her homework. If a child is struggling to complete homework because of the difficulty of the work, please contact your child’s teacher to schedule a conference.
