[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an ES and MS student. They barely have hw. What they have is quickly finished.[/quote]

My ES kid has next to nothing.  My MS kid has 2-3 hours a day this year but a lot of it comes from his accelerated classes.[/quote]

Is your MS student in a magnet?

Mine is in honors geometry, honors French 3, and whatever the HIGH class for 8th grade is called and definitely does not have that level of homework. At most a 1/2 hour a night. But we are at our local school.[/quote]

Nope- at our local school.  Maybe your kid is fast or maybe your kid’s teachers aren’t assigning much,  but my kid’s 8th honor geo teacher said at open house that there is about 45 min of homework per night on average and that has been accurate for my kid.  The 8th grade HIGH class often has essays and PPTs and readings that take a good chunk of time as well.  My kid is in Spanish 3A (not sure if that’s the equivalent of honors 3 French) and that has had a good amount of homework too (in 6th and 7th grade there was very little).  And the other classes sometimes have no homework but sometimes have 20 min of assignments/ assigned readings.  So yeah 2-3 hours on average.  [/quote]
