Homework

Homework is assigned specifically to reinforce classroom lessons and to help students build habits of independent studying, time management, and personal responsibility. Assignments are developmentally appropriate for students’ levels or abilities.

Recommended average homework time should be:

• Grades 1st – 3rd: 30 minutes – 45 minutes nightly
• Grades 4th – 6th: 1 hour – 1 ½ hours nightly
• Grades 7th – 8th: 1 ½ hours – 2 hours nightly

We encourage parents to supervise and guide their children’s work to ensure completion. Parental involvement is essential in developing positive study habits.
