Why is doing homework such an important part of being considered for Tamiscal?
Independent Study really means “independent” work. As a student at Tamiscal, you are expected to take your assignments and work on your own with teacher guidance. You are given a week’s worth of homework at one time and are expected to manage your time and come back the next week with all the work completed. Students who have not kept up with daily homework assignments are rarely ready to manage a week’s worth of work at a time. Most important, attendance at Tamiscal is computed by the amount of homework done. If you come to your appointments and classes but don’t bring homework, then for attendance purposes you have cut a week of school!
