A friendly note to parents: The Homework Hotline is a courtesy to parents—not a substitute for a student's daily assignment log. Students should be writing assignments down in their assignment notebook daily. Please also note that assignments may change without notice, the personnel responsible for posting the homework may be absent from school, or other circumstances may arise that prevent us from updating the site. It is ultimately your child's responsibility to know what the assignments are for each night.
