Eh, reading comprehension failure on my part again: the OP's problem is not
with home assignments but with school-wide distribution such as weekly
schedule. This renders the Word requirement - or even a computer
requirement - even less reasonable, IMHO. Making 5% - or 1% - of families
to buy a computer and/or specialized SW just to view a schedule is totally
unacceptable on financial grounds only.
