Originally, I voted "Maybe," because many of our students have enough on their plates both in and out of school. But, I needed to comment.
Young people, socially and perhaps educationally, are judged by circumstances beyond their control on a daily basis. As a former alternative high school principal, I would try so many things to get parents involved...if that would be homework, so be it. The key is to keep trying but not to place unnecessary burdens on those who need the most of (all) our help.
It is with regrets that I view so few responses to the poll. Let's jump in colleagues!
