School Homework Policy
Here is an explanation of the school homework policy:
Students should not spend more than 90 minutes per night. This
time should be budgeted in the following manner:
15 minutes looking for assignment
11 minutes calling a friend for the assignment
23 minutes explaining why the teacher is mean and just does not
like children
8 minutes in the bathroom
10 minutes getting a snack
7 minutes checking the TV Guide
6 minutes telling parents that the teacher never explained the
assignment
10 minutes sitting at the kitchen table waiting for Mom or Dad to
do the assignment
LONG TERM ASSIGNMENTS
These are given the night before they are due. This explains the name "long term". It is a long term commitment to time that begins at 9:30PM and ends at 11:50PM - or later. It is important that the whole family is involved in the project. It is imperative that at least one family member races to Walmart/K-Mart for posterboard, and that at least one family member ends up in tears (does not have to be the student).
One parent needs to stay up and complete the project. The other parent needs to call the school and leave a message that the student is out sick.
It is not necessary to have the student's name on the assignment.
