HS is a transition to adulthood. More and more responsibility taken by the student.

Good teaching isn’t checking all of the homework, it is presenting the material and going over the problems with the class. Math is easy for students to self check while the teacher discusses it. Kudos to the teacher not doing busy work. Your D needs to take control of her learning. She needs to spend extra time going over problems she missed as soon as possible and not just try to learn it the night before any test.

Notice- you and the teacher are turning control over her learning to your D. YOU are not doing the work of checking or figuring out how problems need to be done unless she gets stuck and asks for help. A big part of learning is learning how to learn.
