Homework at Compass

Compass has three levels of homework expectations, which is up the teacher and are indicated in the description for each class.

• None or optional applies to all elective classes and some core classes
• Required: In core classes only. Completion of homework is required and vital for class.
  • Parents will be contacted if homework is not complete.
  • If this is an ongoing problem, the student may be moved to study hall for the remainder of the semester.
  • No refunds will be given
  •  Teachers will not be required to grade the assignments or keep the grade of any child in the class unless they choose to.

Core classes that count for credit (All of the ones on the highschool rotation) WILL have homework.

· In order to get the credit, the student has to spend a certain # of hours on that subject.

· Meeting 1x a week will not have them reach that number so they will have assignments at home

· The TEACHER is the one that will let the students know what to do at home and what to do in class.
