baby What is the homework load like?

Individual teachers determine homework assignments on a daily basis however, our teachers work together to provide a comfortable homework load over the course of the week.  We certainly do not want to overwork our students simply because they are capable.  We are aware of the need for balance in work and play.  Our expectation is that homework be meaningful and rigorous as well as reasonable.  Under most circumstances, students have approximately 30 minutes of homework per class. With 90 minutes in a standard class, a student can normally finish assignments during this time.

All students are placed in the appropriate grade level class for their academic courses.
