Homework and Teacher Pages
The length of homework assignments in the Upper Elementary division vary from teacher to teacher. Fourth graders can expect about 40 minutes of homework a night, and fifth and sixth graders average approximately 20 minutes per major subject. Students have some study halls during the week at which time they can complete assignments and get extra help. Assigned test days limit the number of tests a student may have each day to two. Samples of nightly homework are posted below.
