Raising Scholars Season 2, Episode 3: How to Create an After-School Routine That Actually Sticks

Aired on Jun 24, 2026

You remind. They delay. You remind again. Somehow it's 7PM and homework still hasn't started.

If your after-school routine feels like a daily negotiation, the problem may not be your child. It may be the system.

In this episode, Jacquie Langworthy shares why most homework routines fail, the overlooked after-school window that changes everything, and the four simple components that help routines stick for the long term.

Because a routine your child has to be reminded to follow isn't a routine. It's a request.

For this week's challenge, sit down with your child and build your after-school routine together. Start small, stay consistent, and focus on progress over perfection.
