[quote=Anonymous]My thoughts are that there should be a district-wide homework policy and is should being with a very minimal amount in 4th grade (think reading for 30-40 mins, one math worksheet, and study guide review once a week for any tests). No projects or things that are really parent-intensive). Then it should gradually ramp up in MS and HS. You shouldn’t ban it from K-8 because some kids don’t have parents who can help. Rather, make it age appropriate and possible for a kids to accomplish independently. Eliminating it entirely doesn’t help kids practice responsibility or study skills or time management, which are really critical as they get older. [/quote]
