Homework Class is designed to help<br />

students complete their daily<br />

homework. There is a 1:12 teacher to<br />

student ratio. The teacher in the class<br />

provides assistance and direction to the<br />

students to help them finish any<br />

assignments given daily. It is not<br />

tutoring.<br />

Students enrolled in the program must<br />

attend each session, Monday through<br />

Thursday, from 3:15 – 4:30 pm. The<br />

student is responsible for bringing all<br />

work and books needed to complete the<br />

homework assignments. If there is no<br />

homework, then the child must bring a<br />

book to read during the session. There<br />

are strict rules for classroom procedures<br />

and rules that the students must follow.<br />

Parents of Homework Class children<br />

also have responsibilities. They are<br />

expected to check the student’s<br />

Assignment Book and completed<br />

homework each day. We ask that they<br />

initial or sign the Assignment Book<br />

after each inspection. Parents must also<br />

be sure to pick their child up on time, at<br />

4:30 pm, after each session. This is to<br />

insure the safety of the children as they<br />

are dismissed in the early evening.<br />

Finally, attendance is mandatory.<br />

Students with too many excused or<br />

unexcused absences will be removed<br />

from the program to make room for<br />

children on the waiting list. Children<br />

pulled out of the program or removed<br />

for disciplinary reasons will be put on<br />

the “waiting list” if they apply for<br />

admission to next year’s Homework<br />

Class.<br />

YOUR COOPERATION IS<br />

GREATLY APPRECIATED<br />

If you have a concern with a teacher,<br />

please contact him/her first to discuss the<br />

issue. If the issue is not resolved, then<br />

contact the Principal. I will do whatever<br />

it takes to take care of the problem. If<br />

you are not satisfied with the Principal’s<br />

decision, you can discuss the matter with<br />

the Superintendent.<br />

Remember, our goal is always to provide<br />

a safe, academic environment for all<br />

<strong>Komarek</strong> children. We want all of them<br />

to achieve academic success, but they<br />

need to follow the school guidelines and<br />

complete classroom work.<br />

If you ever have any questions or<br />

concerns, please give me a call.<br />

PARKING AND DROP-OFF<br />

CONCERNS<br />

We are now a school with over 500<br />

students and close to 80 staff members.<br />

Traffic and parking during drop-off and<br />

pick-up is not showing improvement.<br />

Several parents, residents, and staff<br />

members have witnessed students almost<br />

getting hit by a car due to motorists not<br />

following traffic and parking rules.<br />

Please, follow all traffic and parking rules<br />

to avoid accidents around the school. Our<br />

main concern is the safety of our<br />

children as they come to school and go
