Okay unless I'm missing something (Full caveat: we've really only got the teacher's side of this. The school board make a sort of generic boilerplate statement that's in the article but it sorta didn't say anything. So grain of salt.) I really don't get this.
- These aren't students who turned in a poor project. Or an obviously half assed project. Or a late project. They literally turned in nothing. If "Zero" isn't the appropriate grade for that what is?
