HOMEWORK, PROJECTS AND CLASSES
Sidekick Academy students may complete homework assignments or attend classes to achieve their growth requirements and advance levels. Each assignment and class is a little bit different but the basics are always the same. All the different projects available are listed below in quotes "assignment sheets". If you have any questions please post them in the homework inquiries thread or ask a staff member.
Growth Point Rewards
Some assignments have a set growth point reward and others may have 'bonus point' options. These will be clearly displayed on the "assignment sheet". You may not add the points to your point tally until it has been completed, handed in, and marked (see below).
Eligibility Requirements
Not all assignments are available to everyone. Some may only be available to a certain character level (rookie or sidekick) or have special requirements such as having a particular power type, knowing a certain skill or having had already completed anther assignment. These requirements will be clearly mentioned if they exist.
"Handing In" Homework
Once an assignment has been completed, simply fill out the form available in the completed homework thread. After the form has been posted you can assume that your character has earned the appropriate number of points unless the "assignment sheet" says otherwise.
Please remember that it is your student who is 'doing the homework', not you.
And please also remember to HAVE FUN.
