Working together, our motivation and enthusiasm for achieving excellence is greater and more significantly impacts the lives of our students. There's a desert place where kids reach new heights. It's a beautiful place to see. We invite you to visit Ventana Vista, share our excitement, and celebrate children and learning. Each student is given a Ventana Vista Homework Folder to transport assignments and to provide a quick reference regarding the Ventana Vista Homework Philosophy and Guidelines.
Homework is a valuable aid in helping students maximize their school experience.
It reinforces classroom learning, builds responsibility, and develops essential study habits. Homework is one vehicle for home-school communication and must be planned to strike a balance between academics, family life, and the child's needs. General Types of Homework Practice Assignments reinforce skills and concepts taught in class. Preparation Assignments provide background information before topics appear in class. Extension Assignments emphasize individual needs and interests, creativity and application of knowledge gained in class.
