from any release of directory information. Additionally, if applicable, the student’s parent’s school,
institution of higher education, business, or place of employment (as specified on an application to be a
program participant or on a notice of change of name or address) shall be maintained in a confidential
manner.

If a non-custodial parent presents a subpoena or court order stating that s/he should be provided with
copies or access to a student’s records, the District will redact the student’s confidential address and
telephone number from the student’s records before complying with the order or subpoena. The District
will also notify the custodial/residential parent of the release of student records in accordance with the order
or subpoena.

The intentional disclosure of student’s actual/confidential residential address is prohibited. Any violations
could result in disciplinary action or criminal prosecution.

HOMEWORK

Homework is assigned to help the student become more self-reliant, learn to work independently, improve
the skills which have been developed and complete certain projects such as the reading of worthwhile books
and the preparation of research papers. Home study assignments also afford a way for parents to acquaint
themselves with the school program and their own children's educational progress.

Due dates for homework assignments and makeup assignments will reflect that religious holidays are
observed differently by different religious groups.

Homework Statement for the Middle School
Homework at the middle school level provides the opportunity to:
 develop organization and time management skills,
 promote communication between the school and home,
 encourage parent awareness,
 support responsibility, accountability, and independence, and
 practice skills.

It is each student's responsibility to meet with the teacher to obtain missed assignments and to
determine when the makeup work is due.

LOCKERS

A. STUDENT LOCKERS
Students will be assigned a locker each year, located in the extended learning area of their team
classrooms. This proximity to team classrooms will benefit students' organization and time management,
and the improved visibility will enhance safety and security. Our lockers are open-faced organizational
areas. They do not have a locker door; hence, there is not a lock.

All students are expected to access only their own materials and locker. The locker is to be maintained by
the student throughout the year, and he/she is responsible for any damages.
