Parents, did you know that there are several ways that you can check to see what your child has for homework? Homework hotline can be accessed by calling the main school number and listening for your team’s extension. Homework is also posted on the team webpages, located on the Brogden webpage, www.brogden.dpsnc.net. Click on Academic Teams and choose your child’s team. Your child should also record homework assignments daily in his/her agenda book. Many teachers assign large projects with several due dates before the final project is due. Help your child to not wait until the last minute. Students should have homework in some class every night, even if it is just reading. Please contact me if you’d like parent resources for helping your child with homework.
