As they grow, students become increasingly responsible for their education, not passive recipients of it.  It is essential for parents to set expectations early on so children fully understand their central role in learning.

Students are responsible for:

• Attending school regularly
  
  
• Completing homework assignments and being prepared for class
  
  
• Arriving at school ready to learn and prepared to work hard on their studies
  
  
• Honoring the school as a respectful and serious place for learning
  
  
• Showing respect for all members of the school community
  
  
• Knowing the rules and following them

Above all, students are responsible for putting forth the time and effort to do their work well.
