(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Can't say I'm sure about the homework load appropriateness, but my daughter has been loaded down worse by another school before.
We have been involved with 4 schools total (moving, rezoning, and a school my son goes to).. and I have the least amount of complaints about this one.
Other schools were less friendly or would not be willing to take the time to help my child with a problem she didn't understand. This is exactly why I've brought her back to Southern and now she likes school again and her grades have improved.
