Question: Are there laws concerning how many hours of homework a school is allowed to assign?

Answer: No. There are no laws that regulate how much homework can be assigned. But many school districts have policies that set guidelines for homework based on grade level. A student or parent concerned about homework should ask the school principal if the school district has guidelines.

You people only think you have to much homework, because you are totally against doing any of it in the first place. Why dont you just do it and shut up like everyone else? If you have tons of homework and still finish it all, more power to ya. People like that deserve respect, unlike all you people sitting around whining about how bad you've got it. And the idiots who want to shorten the school days... yall are a bunch of dolts. That would only increase the amount of homework you have, because the school is obligated to meat benchmarks, which means they cant spend a whole year on one thing. Y
