Dear Holt Families,

We would like to thank you for taking the time to review your child’s homework each night and signing their homework log. The purpose of our log is to increase parent and teacher communication, increase student responsibility for completing homework,and to ensure students develop homework study skills/habits to strengthen their academic skills. We believe your support at home is critical in helping your child have success in school. I have talked to teachers and students and reviewed their homework logs. They are finding that it is helping to facilitate better communication with their parents. For each week your child has a completed homework log with your signature, we will enter your name in a drawing for a $50.00 gift card in Dec. We will identify one winner for each grade level.

Ideas for supporting your child best at home:

  • establishing routines for completing homework with a quiet study area
  • regular bedtime to ensure your child is well rested
  • checking/signing your child’s homework log daily and signing the communication folder
  • limiting the television time to age-appropriate programs
  • making sure they are reading nightly.

We recognize that parents and teachers are partners.  Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

George Koop
