In the past, the group has effectively initiated changes and improvements which have benefited all students at Orange Grove. Student Activities Committee - This committee plans all of the special activities for the school year. Students help to plan a variety of social activities. Homework Policies Homework reinforces classwork through practice and extension. It gives students the opportunity to display responsible behavior and to extend the conditions under which they learn.
Homework is strictly the responsibility of students and their teachers.
Teachers will ensure that assignments given have been explained in class, are at a level that enables students to work independently, and are evaluated according to the student's capacity. Parents are requested to notify teachers in writing if the student is unable to complete an assignment due to lack of understanding. Provided that a student works efficiently, the amount of homework given on any day should not usurp all of a student's free time. Teachers will coordinate major assignments such as research papers and projects. It is the responsibility of each student to respect the rights of teachers, aides, students and others who are involved in the educational process.
