The Search Institute has identified the building blocks of healthy development that help young people grow up healthy, caring, and responsible. The Cougar Corner will list 2 of these 40 Developmental Assets each week for the next 20 weeks. One of these assets is "Homework." The Institute reports that for healthy development, young people do at least one hour of homework every school day. Another asset is "Bonding to School." Healthy young people care about their school.
