text: Homework, middleschoolers and highschoolers are smothered with it every day, every week, every year. Homework, depending on your academic intelligence, may take a while, it may make them stay up late on a school day. Students usually stay up late at night doing homework, and making them do a extracurricular activity during the school year may make them stay up later due to not having that time after they leave school to do their homework, they may end up being more fatigued, they may not turn in their homework, and they may not be able to do their share of the project making people look badly upon them and making their grades suffer, When you have to stay up late at night, you usually are more tired, less aware, and your grades may drop.
