Not only did the cheating students learn a dangerous lesson from their complaining/enabling parents and the compliant school board, but the honest kids were taught something as well.
And, here is the real news: this happens ALL the time. (Sorry, but it's true, and private schools are also not immune from it.)

..., and private schools are also not immune from it.) You make a good additional point. As I felt when drafting my initial comment, the problems that we often lay at the feet of "the teachers" are often bigger, and your example points out that they are often beyond public education in general. Their cultural base is what I saw in this article.
It also looks like the teacher's union was no where to be seen when her back was to the wall and the kids were on the line. Where were they, it doesn't make that clear?
