What are the district guidelines regarding the amount of homework a student should have each night, especially guidelines regarding projects?
RISD sets specific homework guidelines for schools. They are detailed in the district’s 2003-2004 Secondary Program of Studies, which is available to any parent through their child’s school, the district administrative office, or the RISD Web site (www.risd.org). The RISD homework guidelines are consistent with those of both the National PTA and the U.S. Department of Education. RISD considers homework as an important and necessary extension of classroom instruction.
