It is the policy of the Warwick Public School System to require some directed assignments for completion beyond the normal school day to reinforce lessons taught, encourage independent work, and provide enrichment activities.

These are time guidelines:

Grade 1: 10 to 15 minutes daily
Grade 2: 15 to 20 minutes daily
Grade 3: 20 to 25 minutes daily
Grade 4: 30 to 45 minutes daily
Grade 5: 40 to 50 minutes daily

Times are approximate and will vary among students and classes. Friday and/or holiday assignments are at the discretion of the child’s teacher. If your child is having extreme difficulty with their homework, please notify your child’s teachers.

Student self-direction is one of the major goals of out-of- school assignments.
