My 7th grader studies about 45 per night. Has to study at least 20 mins/night in French alone to understand vocab and grammar to do well on the weekly assessments, and has English and math assignments due every Friday. He has occasional assignments in other subjects, though some of that is completed in school. He also has regular assessment in math, French, and English, and occasional assessments in other classes, and studies for all of them. He is very diligent in studying and could definitely get away with studying less.

North Bethesda MS - zero homework per night?

Sixth grade with no homework.

My 6th grader gets very little homework. Which is fine I guess, but I hope it increases gradually as they progress to 7th and 8th grade.

0 at our MS. My kid finishes their work in class. Straight As. At orientation, they specifically said there's no homework.

30 minutes or less. Of course we add more.

Have you discussed this with your child's teachers, the school counselor, and/or the school PTA? Some of this is very student Assign you kid a novel (any novel) and a deadline for it to be completed and an expectation for how many chapters to read per week.

They're not because they won't have 7 different subjects for 8 hours a day every day.

* in college

For high school, I promise they will learn and adjust

No homework for my 7th grader (or last year in 6, either) unless something was not quite finished at school, in which case a couple of minutes at most. Zero regrets here. DC is learning well enough and we are leaning hard into extracurriculars and sports, and enjoying our family life without being haunted by homework. I feel very lucky.

I haven’t seen my 7th grader do homework ever.

The advise is 10 mins per grade level not including K. So anything up to approximately 60mins would be acceptable

Very little, which is sad especially for math.

What the average amount of homework per night in middle school? I have heard 0-60min/night, is this correct?

Thanks!
