Alberta teacher kicked out of class for giving students zeros

Edmonton apparently has a no-zero policy. Parts of the intention of the policy sound good, like trying to get teachers to follow up with students to submit late assignments. But, I think a zero needs to be given eventually, otherwise it’s not fair to anyone.

A stated goal of this policy is to get more kids to complete high school, but if they’re letting kids graduate without completing the same amount of work, everyone loses.
