[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did your kids go to private middle schools? My son loved private high school because his private MS gave him more homework. He also loved that he had free periods in HS so he got good at using them to get his homework done. He's in college now and says it has been easier in terms of workload than HS and MS![/quote] Yes it is easier because the workload is less. One credit hour will require 2 hours of non class work. So 12 credit hours is 36 hours per week including class room time. In college you are not stuck in school from 8-3 and after school activities plus 3-4 hour of homework. If you stop and think about it it is ridiculous to put this load on high schoolers. [/quote] It’s ridiculous to choose to put this load on HSers. It’s a choice many parents are fine with, despite the cost. See the thread on stressed out kids where so many parents justify the choice.[/quote]
