Communication Tools
Homework Agenda-An agenda is given to each student at the beginning of the school year to assist them with organization of homework, upcoming projects, test and/or quizzes.  The agenda also contains the student handbook, which parents and students should review. 

In addition to the agenda, parents may call the homework hotline for their child’s cluster to keep informed of the daily homework assignments.  Click here for the homework Hotlines link.

Other forms of communication between school and parents are the school newsletter, open house night, parent/teacher conferences, and telephone contact.  Parents can reach teachers by calling 346-4800 and leaving a message or contacting their child’s school counselor.
