Centennial High School / Middle School excessive homework.

  *Lots of suggestions are pouring in from many parents, to have all of them included, please sign this petition WITH YOUR COMMENTS.  I CAN TAKE A PRINTOUT WITH ALL SUGGETIONS AND SUBMIT.

Dear CHS/Middle School parent,

Lots of parents in High School and Middle school and those who are doing virtual classes are raising this concern about excessive homework in schools. If you like to support please come forward and support us.

Schools should be enjoyable for our kids and not just homework and meaning less assignments.

Here are few concerns:

 Due to Covid, Kids are not able to interreact or study and work together on homework /Assignments.

 Not able to join us in any events and have no time to go out for a walk / play

 They are up sometimes time up to 12 or 1 AM (FRI-SAT-SUN)

 Why they need to submit homework the same day before 11.59 pm there should be set days for homework submissions for each subject. 

 No time the kids to grow socially/personally as all time is consumed on homework

 No time to prep for SAT/ACT or pursue any additional areas of interest.

 The schools are making it HARDER on kids than easier, it has to be less stressful and more manageable 

Moreover, it’s a lot harder for virtual kids than face-to-face. 

Few parents are switching to face-to-face based (as suggested by teachers/ councilors)  

Side effects: (Even the schools are concerned)

Psychology Today said that Teen Anxiety, Depression and Suicide is at an all-time high. 

“New CDC data reveal that almost one in five teens across the nation have seriously considered attempting suicide. Picture a typical high school classroom of 25 students. About five of those students could be thinking about suicide.

Kindly check the email we got from our school , have attached it here AS IS

” Dear Virtual Academy Parents, Please review the information at the link below, regarding our upcoming Signs of Suicide prevention lesson for our Virtual Academy students.
