There's No Homework This Week In Prince George's: Here's Why
Prince George's County students won't have any homework this week. Here's why they will have a bit more free time.
PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MD — Every kid's dream came true: There's no homework this week. Monica Goldson, CEO of Prince George's County Public Schools, announced the decision last month.
"During this week, I encourage students to engage in school-based clubs and organizations or other hobbies at the end of the school day," Goldson said, calling it a holiday gift. "We look forward to everyone returning to school fully recharged and able to focus on learning."
Homework makes its return on Jan. 12.
