4730, Homework

Homework is an important part of the educational program contributing to the educational development of each student in the classroom. It gives students an opportunity to apply the skills learned in class, develops the habit of effectively organizing the use of time, provides an opportunity to find practical applications of knowledge learned in school, and assists in preparation for further learning. It is therefore expected that appropriate homework will be assigned to North
Colonie students as set forth in the administrative regulations developed under the direction of the Superintendent of Schools.
