The learning compact is an agreement between Huntingtowne Farms families and the school that describes how we will work together to support student learning during the school year.
As a student, I will:
- Come to school on time, ready to learn.
- Be prepared with my books, homework, papers, and supplies.
- Wear my school uniform proudly every day.
- Show respect and cooperate with all adults and students in the school.
- Follow our essential agreements to be respectful, responsible, and caring.
- Respecting the rights of others to learn without distraction and disruption.
- Follow all school and district expectations, procedures, and rules.
- Spend time at home on school work --reading every day!
As a parent or guardian, I will:
- Make sure my child arrives at school rested, healthy and on time every day.
- Attend parent/teacher conferences at least two times during the year to learn about my child’s learning progress.
- Require my child to read daily and actively participate, when possible.
- Provide the time and space needed to complete homework activities assigned by my child’s teacher.
- Check my child’s backpack each day for important information.
