Everyone Needs A Night Off Sometimes
-
Swampscott, MA is holding eight "No Homework Nights" throughout the school year. They figure that kids need a break once in a while. I think they're probably right. Sometimes parents and educators think that making school longer and harder and piling on more homework is the way to teach kids, but maybe we should remember what school was like for us, and how difficult it is to learn when your mind is melting because you've been in class tomorrow.
