How often is homework assigned for students in the various grade levels?
P-2 students are expected to read (independently or with a parent) every school day, and may have occasional projects during the year. Homework is formally assigned starting in third grade, and includes daily reading, spelling words, and Bible memory verses. Third graders typically have one additional homework assignment a week; fourth graders, two assignments; fifth graders, three assignments. Middle school students have homework every day, and also are assigned long-term projects. It works out to about ten minutes per night per grade level (i.e. seventh grade, seventy minutes per night).
