[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, DC's experience with GDS was that HW went way up in 8th grade. Before 8th grade it was never an issue. 8th was a slog on weeknights, but rarely interfered with weekends. (And the teachers did seem to coordinate with each other in most cases -- easier to do when everyone in the grade is taking pretty much the same courses.) 9th was when sleep deprivation kicked in and when at least one weekend day started being taken over by HW. With the exception of community service (a couple of extra hours after school one night a week), DC's extracurriculars remained pretty constant over that period, so the difference really was homework load.
