Student planners
To help parents and teachers stay on the same we want to utilize your scholar’s planner. Every morning, we will have the evening’s homework assignments posted on the board. Your scholar is expected to write the homework down into their planner. At the end of the day, one teacher will sign your scholar’s planner to insure they have written everything down. As they accomplish homework, either at school or at home, they should put a check mark next to the assignment indicating that it was completed. Please check your scholar’s planner to ensure they are completing their homework every night. If they do not complete their homework, they will stay in from recess to complete it.
Please make sure your scholar has all the proper supplies for the start of the new semester! This includes having red pens and colored pencils!

Important Information
- Students who do not complete their homework will have to complete their homework during recess on the day the homework is due.
- Scholars can receive a recess detention as a consequence for continual actions that distract from the learning environment during school. This is an opportunity for scholars to spend time reflecting on how to make good choices that will help them be successful here at Great Hearts. Parents will be notified before the detention is served.
- Please make sure your scholar has his or her own copy of Tom Sawyer (ISBN 978-0-141-32110-3). B&M scholars bring their books on Monday January 25th.
- Please have your scholar bring a locker shelf to help with organization of materials and to make for quicker visits.
- Please place a cover on all textbooks (Math and Biology) ASAP. These are required.
- Uniform infractions will be issued for scholars in violation of the GH uniform policy.
