_______________________________
Planners:  Parents, please help me out by not signing a blank planner and not signing the planner for the whole week at one time.  If the planner is to be of most benefit to the students, it must be utilized correctly.  It is the student's responsibility to correctly fill out the planner each day with that day's homework.  If the parent signs a blank planner, the child will not see the importance of filling it out.  I would like to make the suggestion that if your child brings you a blank planner to sign, PLEASE have them fill in the homework before signing it.  It should really be filled out before leaving school so that they can be sure they have written down the correct assignments.  Also, please be sure to check the planner on a daily basis and sign it.  It is the student's responsibility to ask you to do this.  By 6th grade, they are capable of handling this responsibility.  Just a thought:  when my son was in school at OLM (he is now in high school), I would not sign his planner at school, even though I worked on campus. It was his responsibility to take care of this the night before.  If not, he faced the consequence at school.  Any students without their planners signed will be given a red card.  Five red cards in 2 weeks will result in a detention.  Teaching responsibility at this age goes a long way in creating successful learners.
