Van Wyck JHS: Project Homework Print

All too often, the primary cause of poor academic performance at the junior high level is the student's failure to do homework. Project Homework was instituted in order to help students who are experiencing that difficulty.

Members of the faculty first identify students who are failing primarily because they are not doing homework. Once they are identified, they are asked to stay after school twice a week in a supervised study hall.

Each study session is approximately one hour in length. Students who participate in the supervised study session can ride the first group of activity buses that depart at 4:00.

If students are recommended for the program, parents are notified by mail. Students who participate in Project Homework are expected to attend the supervised study sessions until all homework is made up and their teachers excuse them.
