I know this is typical for the US so this is more for US people to respond to. I wouldn’t say that it is the best system for work, just wondering about the disconnect.

    In Germany some schools offer exactly that in day schoolGanztagsschule.

    In theory students get time to do homework in a dedicated hour and the last hours are filled with extracurricular activities.

    But often times teachers assign too much homework and there‘s always at least one day when you have maths other sth else in the late afternoon, what‘s hell for everyone involved.

    I wouldn‘t send my children there, but there are families who are thankful for this system and children who are capable to live an 8-4 day.
