Homework Club Sign Up (Grades 3-5)

Here is the link for next week's homework club.
Lowell Homework Club Sign Up


Lowell School Homework Club

I am pleased to announce that there will be a Homework Club for students in grades 3-5.  The club is designed as a quiet, academic space for students to work on homework, read, and have help from a teacher where needed. The PTO has generously funded this club. 

Who can enroll in the homework club?
 The club is open to all third, fourth, and fifth grade students.  The club is open to 30 students each session.

When will the homework club run?
The club will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 2:40-3:40 pm. We hope to run the club through April.

Who will teach the club?
Mr Stezzi (grade 4/5 teacher) and Ms Hudon (grade 2) teacher will be the lead homework club teachers. Other teachers from the Lowell may also sub in.

How do I  sign my child up for the club?  Enrollment in the club will be on a first come first serve basis. Every Thursday beginning at 3pm, parents may fill out an electronic form to sign their child up for the following weeks homework club.  The link to the form will be up on my blog (www.mskaplanlowell.blogspot.com) and will also be emailed to parents in grades 3-5. 

How will I know if my child is able to attend homework club?
If you sign your child up for homework club and are one of the first thirty to sign up, then you will receive email notification by Friday to let you know if your child is in homework club the following week.

Why is the sign up on a week-week basis?
We are trying to open up this free opportunity to as many students as possible! We also realize that some afternoons and weeks are busy for families, so we hope the flexibility will allow for ease of scheduling.

How does pick up and drop off change?
It is parents responsibility to let their child’s homeroom teacher know that their child will be attending homework club (an email or written note will suffice) as attendance at the club changes the dismissal plan. All students in homework club must be picked up promptly in the main lobby at 3:40 pm. If your child goes to LEDP, they will transition to LEDP after the club.

When will everything start?
The first sign up will happen this week on Thursday, January 9th.  The homework club will begin on Tuesday, January 14th.

I still have questions!
Please email Ms Kaplan with any further questions. Elizabeth.kaplan@watertown.k12.ma.us
