There is a school wide policy that in order to fully satisfy the requirements of all courses at The Newman School, all class assignments (both in class and homework) MUST be completed to the best of the student’s ability, to teacher expectations and submitted timely. Please note that students may fail a course if this requirement is not satisfactorily met regardless of their grade or performance. In the event that an assignment is not submitted on time (and the teacher has not given the student an extension), the student is still responsible for completing and submitting the assignment even though credit may not be awarded for the work. Students are required to attend an after school homework study on the day that they have not submitted homework. Further, parents will be sent a report from school each week if it is reported that students have not submitted homework and if they are required to attend homework study.
Students must also refer to the syllabus for each course for further details of the homework policy.
