In keeping with the best research and progressive educational practices, AAA limits homework time (not including special projects or individual supplemental study) to 90 minutes daily. AAA educators believe homework is practice for skills taught/ learned in the classroom and homework should not prevent AAA students from taking advantage of the myriad of extra curricular experiences our community offers.
