[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]its not just math. they put out materials saying expect 90-120 minutes homework each night. i know middle school students who go there who say its not actually that much. but as a prospective parent, the idea that the administration might somewhat expect and not be highly sympathetic towards a 5th-7th grader who was consistently doing 90+ minutes of teacher-assigned homework per night was a not insignificant reason to stay dcps knowing the homework load is such that my child can easily continue with her various out of school activities.[/quote] FWIW, I have a 5th grader and he has straight A's and very rarely brings home homework. He says he can finish it at the end of each class or in study hall. He hasn't dropped any activities (and does one at BASIS after school).[/quote]
