The biggest school fight I witnessed?
We had done a test a week prior and the teacher handed out the results. My score wasnt amazing also not too bad. I scored a C, and a fellow male classmate who sat next to me had a D.
While we compared our tests, I could hear a fellow female classmate approaching the teacher with a friend's test result. She said that both, herself and her female fellow classmate got the same answer, but different points for it. The teacher responded "Oh well, you are right. The answer is wrong, I would have to take away points from your friend. But since the two of you are so pretty, I won't." The female classmate with the bad score thanked the teacher for not grading down her fellow classmates work.
inportant to note: You may correct the score to improve, but not to worsen in Germany. It'd be illegal to downgrade a returned paper. That girl didnt know this apparently.
I was still comparing my test with my fellow male classmate. And of course we found same answers graded differently as well. I told my classmate to go and show it to the teacher -- he had nothing to lose. Either the teacher corrected his score for the better, or it'd remain same.
He talked to the teacher, and the teacher responded that my answer was wrong. Bummer, there couldnt be done anything about his test. THEN the teacher continued and substracted points from my score (scribbling on my test-results). (Obviously I was not pretty enough to get a pass from his made up rules.) My classmate returned to me, handed me the test looking really depressed and apologized saying it was all his fault etc. I smiled at him with an honest smile and told him it's okay, I will take care of it.
After the lesson I walked up to the teacher and requested him to take back his "correction" from my test-results, as it is illegal to correct handed out tests so the score goes down. He was an ignorant asshole, I confronted him with what he said to the other two female classmates. I asked again if this is his last word in this regard. He responded, packing his bag not even looking at me, that he will not give me back those points. I crossed my arms in front of my chest, stood right between him and the classroom door and had my angry glance fixed on him, him finally looking back at me. Then I said "You are leaving me no choice then. I have to report this to our head of school and the states education board. He thought I bluffed. He repeated, emotionless and totally not caring "I won't change that score back." and left.
I went straight to the head of school, explained her the situation and she took note of it but while she didnt dismiss it didn't look like she'd do much. Before we parted I told her that, if she didn't do something about it I'd have to report it to the state's education board. I was ready to take this case to the very top, not because of the stupid score but because the teacher was a sexist asshole who apparently graded tests based on looks, gender and what not.
I got my test back with the old result, said teacher hated me for the rest of the year but it was still a weak win since I got my score back and taught him a lesson not to bully students.
Yeah, no violence involved sorry.
A different (gym) teacher was suspended cuz he had in appropriated touched girls during class and also showed up drunk a few times. Wasnt in my class, so i just learned about it from classmates.
