High school term papers/reports?

Question

How long are term papers or book reports expected to be?

Is there some sort of standard across the country?

Thank you,

Generally, a teacher will specify how long the paper should be.  

Length would be determined by factors such as: how much weight the paper holds grade-wise, how much time was spent or should be spent on the topic, and how in-depth it should be.  

My guess would be that MOST HS papers range from no less than 1 to no more than 10 pages, depending on the purpose and scope of the assignment.  However, different teachers will have different requirements.
