[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s only been a month but it’s been fine. The work load hasn’t been much different. He’s had very little homework but they get a block every other day that’s basically a study hall. [/quote] Is your kid taking any honors classes? Our HS discourages kids from taking more than 2-3 honors classes at a time. The honors classes have had homework from day one but from what I’ve observed from a small subset — then non-honors classes barely have homework which was the MS experience for both honors and non-honors. So our POV the honors classes in MS did not prepare kids and did not get the kids up to where they needed to start 9th grade. I think learning loss during 7th grade when school was COVID weird and largely at home had a huge impact. [/quote]
