This will only hurt the inner city students.

I know a few teachers in some really poor areas and many teachers have to fight against unearning at home.

Homework helps with this. I also don't think a student can learn enough in the classroom. With ever growing class sizes, students just can't get all they need in terms of learning, without homework.

I just have to shake my head at one more thing that will put our future generation behind the rest of the world.



Homework is good because it solves the problem of schools and home being bad?


Homework is an imperfect real world solution to a real world problem. As opposed to no real world solution to a real world problem.
