Reduce homework weight for high school students

Created by J.S. on January 30, 2014

Studies have shown that homework is only used as a review tool. Also that homework causes tons of stress that is not needed on top of all other stressful things going on. Homework should be reduced to 3 times a week and if the teachers give more it is optional. Also the students sometimes have hours upon hours of homework on a night they may have sports or other curricular activities. Also teachers should have to communicate so they do not have big test the same days or pack on a lot of homework the same night.
