Edmonton teacher suspended for giving 0s

[Bobbingsworth]

45. I attended a school with this policy and I never did homework.

It was a long time ago so I probably have some of the details wrong. I was only in that school for one year and it was the first year of the no zero policy. The teachers were as confused as my parents and I were. The rules changed about every two weeks. They did make us stay one or two hours after school to do the homework that we failed to do for a reduced grade but at the end of the grading period, all incomplete assignments were changed to 1's.
They also came up with this great idea to not allow time limits on the final exams. I made them pay for that one. They had to hold my buss and all the students on it for over an hour on the last day of school while I worked on one math problem that was getting the better of me. I finally got it and it's a good thing that I did. I would have hated to get a 99 instead of a 100. lol
I don't know why I still get such joy out of this story. It's one of the top two dick moves of my entire life. I even laughed at all the kids on the bus. I don't know how I survived.
Anywho, in the end those policies really didn't change my grades at all. It just made my parents, my teachers, and myself angry. If the teacher graded homework, I got a D. If the teacher only graded tests and quizzes, I got an A.

Oh, if you're going to tell me that my parents should have made me do it, I was grounded for 3 straight years. I managed to only get teachers that didn't grade homework for my senior year.
