“Most high school teachers have between 120-150 students. Imagine if they tried to look over all the problems on that many homework assignments each night. It is a near impossible task.”

Hardly impossible.



Ummm…do the math. 120 homework sets. Say it takes 4 minutes per homework assignment to grade and write comments (and I think 4 minutes is on the low side). That’s 480 minutes to grade that homework, which translates to EIGHT HOURS of grading, with no time off, no breaks.

Teach your kids to ask for help. Not only will it help with math, but learning to speak up is a good life-skill as well.
