[quote=Anonymous]This is about HOMEWORK? My view is that the action the school took is over the top. It is one thing to cheat on a test by copying someone else’s work. But HOMEWORK? The purpose of homework is to gain practice in learning certain skills and concepts. If someone copied your daughter’s homework, the one that loses is the person who copied it. And, as for the Madison HS honor code - maybe I missed it, but where does it address HOMEWORK? I would begin by asking the school what the purpose of homework is. Is it graded? If it is, that is interesting because I would wonder how the school knows WHO completed the homework. If the parent helped the student, then who is really getting the grade - the parent or the student? How can the school know, for certain, if the student actually completed the homework independently, thus earning the grade he/she is given. [/quote]
