Get to a better school, modern pedagogical research does not support the usage of homework
Pedagogy and praxis do not always go hand in hand for a million different reasons.

There should be an option to email participating parents into letting them know there's homework.

I know you're just doing your job (and likely have a lot of homework too!) but there's so much toxic and biased about how we evaluate kids and their education.
I read your whole post, I'm just quoting here to make it brief. I agree that homework is not the best means to assess students and is often treated as one of the only means.

Yeah but what does that have to do with school?
School is meant to poorly prepare you for real life.

School is meant to be a poor implementation of state-sponsored daycare, with grossly unfitting hours.

We were all in HS before, and at a point realized at the last second we had homework due. I wouldn't judge the kid, just leave it up to them to either catch up or fail. It's a choice matter. I mean yeah homework is a flawed learning instrument, but it can teach decision and accountability.

When i taught a college class, I had students complain I would add assignments in class and not post about it online.

That's because people stopped showing up to class. This was not an online class and I told everyone I would do this.

You paid for this education, why stop showing up?

The point of homework is to solidify and retain information. If anything its more important to assign homework over a longer break

I didn't understand it in high school either, and rarely did it. But when I did it for my language program I found it to be extremely useful as a means to challenge myself to retain information learned in class and then apply that in my guided assignments while trying to avoid the textbooks as much as possible.

Ultimately it is a really useful tool to help reinforce what you know and it gives you time and cause to critically think about it, explore further implications, etc.

How exactly are tests done during this time? I've taken online classes in college but the test questions weren't something you could Google or simply just flip to the page. Is yours something similar?

20 problems of a basic type (so no word problems) based on the lesson. It was assigned on Thursday and due this morning.

Entirely depends on the class.

If Im a psychology major, but the career plan forces me to take math, I am not as interested as attending every session if I dont need to.

So me paying for it is irrelevant. I dont even want to take the class.
