Peekskill High School Homework Rationale

In all Courses: 

• Homework should demonstrate that it was completed with care and accuracy.
• Homework should be completed to the best of each student’s ability.
• Homework should be returned to school on time.
• Homework will be graded based on completion 

Mathematics Department’s Homework Policy Rationale:

The Mathematics Department values homework because we believe students need to practice and need exposure to fluency with new concepts. Homework challenges students to self-evaluate their current understanding of the material. We believe independent assignments permit students to take ownership of their education. It forces them to be aware of their ease and struggles with the material and become advocates for themselves. Homework is also an excellent source of data collection. 

Homework is assigned daily. Homework support exists daily through Call Back and the Elton Brand Academy. 

All daily and weekly homework assignments are listed on Mrs. Lennane's Google Classroom pages.
