Homework Policy
In San Marcos, homework is an effort grade. Research has shown that homework is not as an effective retention tool as it was once believed to be. This year in fourth grade, homework will consist of 20 minutes of reading each night of the week. In order to hold the students accountable for the reading minutes assigned, they will be responsible to hand in a book report or project each month.
