[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rather than providing an intricate breakdown of the STA/NCS schedule, can't someone there just say something like "My 10th grade student does 2.5 hours most nights." Feels like the question is being dodged[/quote]

@18:52, among others, was specific -- she said her daughter had 2-3 hours per night, less if she did more work on a weekend.  And re: the detailed breakdown, several posters relied on the handbook and extrapolated, assuming five classes per night.  It's obviously relevant that students have only 3 or 4 classes per night.

My kids have only about 1.5 hours a night -- or a little less -- if they've worked during their free time at school (STA).  When they use their free period chill out at the snack bar (Sam's Bar) with their friends (younger one), or drive to Brueger's Bagels in Glover Park (older one), then they have work in the 2-3 hour range.  It takes them longer if they get distracted by texts to girlfriend (older one) or Clash of Clans (younger one).  [/quote]
