Ladue School District Policy states that homework may be given on an individual basis or as an enrichment of classwork as defined by the curriculum. Homework may be given:

• as make-up work missed because of absence;
• as work assignments not completed during school hours;
• as work needing correction once it has been reviewed with the student;
• as reinforcement of important skills;
• as enrichment of the curriculum;
• as independent work requiring teacher response.

Homework assigned must be reasonable in length of time required to finish it, appropriate to the age and maturity of the student, meaningful in content, and clearly understandable to the student.
