School allowed to do this?!

[MatthewGor123]

Is it fair? Of course not. Is it legal? YES. The entire class may be forced to take the responsibility for the entire class. However, what you could do, if you actually know you did well, is complain to the board of education.

You could bring up the point like "how could I have cheated off someone, if I'm the only one with this grade?" But hate to break it to ya, it's perfectly legal. I was reading somewhere that an entire school was disqualified from the MCAS (meaning EVERYBODY had to retake it the next year) because of several instances where TXT messaging was used to cheat.

Talk to the principal - he probably won't do anything. Then, ask for a meeting with the Board of Educators, and hopefully it will be granted. I strongly doubt that they'll make EVERYBODY fail because of one kid. Or the kid will cave in.

Not fair to make whole class suffer because of a few cheaters.

Go to the principal, as others have stated. You shouldn't get accused of something you didn't do.. If the principal doesn't do anything write a complaint to the board of education (as someone stated, I think), once you do that something will be done.

Ya they can do that, you could try and complain but it propoly won't do any good. But i'v gotten out of a lot of things at school just by arguing with them, if your gonna try and fight it be stubborn about it.

 

Yep, i argued and we will retake the test tomorrow, what we get on that test we get for the grade, no averaging!

*YaY*

Thanks to all who have helped!

What kind of country do you live in that makes you sign something like that? If they were smart they would have scheduled the test on another day.

It's simple, first go to principal and tell him of your complaint, if he denies and refuses to fix the problem, get your parents involved and go to school bored.

Do you honestly let your school system treat you like this? I'd make sure the fuckers pay before they did something like this, last month they changed the grading system and we didn't like it. We had 250 people outside of one of our High schools throwing rocks at school cars and protesting.

That is not legal to do as a teacher. Your teacher has no right as she has no proof.

Take that to your principal.

 

[Grave]

I'd go and argue it through.

They are only allowed to do that when they have substantial evidence that much of the class cheated, or if an answer book was stolen.

 

[ieatw00d]

Go to the principal/teacher about it. Or if that just doesnt work go to your parents about it.

 

[tubba lub]

That can't be allowed. The teacher probably did it just to prove a point, and I'm sure that you'll get your legit test score. If not, talk to the principal

its staffs fault.

1st hit the kid who told on about cheating lol

2nd, take this up with the principle and other head beings, and ure parents, it shudnt be allowed.

 

[Christmas Crackers]

He's going to retake the test...why do people keep posting that the school shouldn't be allowed to do this? lol

 

[R oc K]

fuck the establishment

shit like this

 

[Daily]

Make an appeal, bring it up with your school board.

 

[Dark boy42]

That's BS. Talk to the principal if you have to, but that is some messed up shit.

 

[bulimic]

i didn't read all of the replies, but i'd suggest talking to the dean and requesting to be able to take a retest to prove you actually knew what was o nthe test and didn't cheat

 

[deathflame51]

Thats bull! Principal or School Board!

Well, yesterday our teacher was out, and we had no sub, so the teacher from the other classroom had to keep watch on us. Yesterday we also had a test in said class, and occasionally the teacher would check on us if we were cheating.

So, my friend and I both finished the test first and go to our next class. Turns out, one kid was caught cheating and said "Why should i get in trouble if everyone else cheated" ( Only about 4 other students cheated ) and since our dean of students is as lazy as he is, he gave us all 0% on that test even to those who legitimately took the test and earned out grades. Also, we are no longer "honors" track/class due to this.

Best part here, i would of gotten a 100% + extra credit ( 10% ) when the teacher actually graded it, it was the highest in the class. How can I be accused of cheating when i have the fucking highest test score?

So here is my question, is this allowed? Due to one person all of us are punished? What should i do?

P.S. All stupid remarks and spam will be reported.

You cheated.
