SCRIP
SCRIP is an opportunity to support our school. When you purchase scrip, you are purchasing gift certificates/cards that are used just like cash.

HOMEWORK
Homework, both written and unwritten, is assigned Monday through Thursday to reinforce material already taught and to foster habits of independent study. Homework may be assigned on the weekend. Unwritten assignments, such as research and text reading, should be completed with as much care as written assignments. Long-term projects are also considered part of homework.
