was this a public skool?
my kid’s public skool class once received an assignment to produce a poster for the then-upcoming election between clinton and dole. he produced a dole poster and was promptly ostracized by his classmates, who had all produced clinton posters, when the time came to display the posters in class.
i immediately informed the teacher that the assignment was counter to the concept of the anonymous vote. the teacher agreed, and changed the assignment to a group assignment.
my kid got the message, and the group (like all other groups in the class) produced a clinton poster.
i decided that, for the sake of my kid, trying to reason with the teacher was not in his best interests.
i did not have any personal experience with attending public elementary schools as a student. in parochial school, we would always deride public skool students. they could not spell, and their grammar sucked, so their own writing easily identified them as public skool products. that was in the 1960s, and things apparently have gone downhill in public skools from there.
Bullies are bad teacher can be really mean one was mrs Wolfgang made me cry a few times no help really made me want to dissapear i hated waking up when i went there
It’s always the unforeseen/unintended consequences that get you. Most of these “clever” projects are ill-conceived from the start, and changing a part of the project just skews the problem in another direction rather than eliminating the problem altogether - similar to the writing of government laws.
