There was recently a letter about how a private school prepared its students for college without the aid of homework (Readers' Forum, Aug. 30). I have graduated from Kimber Academy. It is true the school does not require homework. This allows for more family time. As a result, I grew to love my family and my education. Now I am in college, and my family taught me how to do the "busywork."
