Each teacher is permitted to give homework to aid pupils in learning. As a rule, homework is for completing work started in class, drill, practice, or special projects.  Cumulative homework assignments for the average student should not exceed the following:

1st Grade:       0 - 15 minutes

2nd Grade:      15 - 30 minutes          

3rd Grade:       15 - 30 minutes

4th Grade:       30 - 40 minutes

5th Grade:       40 - 50 minutes

6th Grade:       50 - 60 minutes

There should be no homework assignments on Wednesday evenings.  In keeping with the spirit of this policy, no tests will be given on Thursday, unless unavoidable, and then only with permission from the administrator.  Each teacher will set standards for accepting homework assignments.
