[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They got rid of homework because of equity. Not everyone has a stable home situation and some need to care for younger siblings or elderly relatives. So nothing assigned out of school, and in fact we are forfeiting instruction time for study time, because they can’t study at home either. Equity is a real problem. This is not the way to solve it. No homework in 8th grade? Maybe not even high school? College will be crushing [/quote] OP here. I completely understand and support the need for more equity but I agree with you that this not the way to solve it or, at most, it's only solving a part of the problem because, at the end of the day, it's these same kids with unstable home life without the appropriate resources that will get left behind.[/quote]
