Homework
The purpose of homework is to reinforce material already taught and to foster habits of independent study. Each teacher determines the homework procedures for his/her classroom.
The following time allotments represent the average time that should be spent on homework per day. These time allotments do not include daily reading and preparing for exams.
- TK and Kindergarten - Optional; not to exceed 20 minutes per day
- Grades 1-2 - Not to exceed 45 minutes per day
- Grades 3-5 - Not to exceed 1 hour per day
- Grades 6-8 - Not to exceed two 2 hours per day
If your child is working hard and spends considerably more time than this on a regular basis, please inform the teacher. Parents are responsible for supervising homework and signing any tests, assignments, or homework books as required by teachers. Students are responsible for writing down their homework assignments.
