It may be tougher at that middle school age - but my DD's teacher was willing and able to change the way homework is handled in her case. Normal homework doesn't even get graded - it only gets checked off for being turned in. She now grades DD's work and DD has to stay in recess if she didn't complete it correctly. So, maybe some of it could be put back "on the school"...not that I'm for giving teachers extra work, but just something simple like "if my son doesn't turn in his homework on the first day it's due, could he please have lunch in someone's room to work on it?"
