Oh man I have quite a few stories from my time in school...but I'll share just this one!
In middle school, they decided to integrate a TERRIBLE punishment system when I was in 7th grade called the "Wildcat Way". It was an infraction system, where every time you didn't turn in your homework, were late to class, misbehaved, etc. you would receive an "infraction" and you wouldn't be able to go to lunch or recess with your friends.
My 7th grade English teacher was determined to give every single one of her students an infraction during the course of the year, and she was truly determined. A classmate of mine who ended up graduating as valedictorian in high school got an infraction for "raising her hand at the wrong time", and I got one for stepping into the classroom as the bell rang (which was late in her eyes, because I wasn't in my seat).
I tried to explain to her that I come from the band room across the school and it's hard to be fully packed up to make it to English in 3 minutes (the amount of passing time we got).
Guess what? She gave me a second infraction for "being disrespectful".
See, teachers like my 7th grade English teacher are why they got rid of the Wildcat Way system after I entered high school. Teachers were having too much fun with it and it wasn't serving its purpose, and, during the winters, students would purposefully not turn in assignments so they didn't have to go outside in the cold (which I also did a few times, or, I would have a teacher that liked me do me a solid and write me up to stay in even though my work was turned in on time).
I have plenty of stories of times where I should've definitely gotten in trouble in school but I didn't, because I had a lot of teachers that genuinely liked me and stood up for me. For that I am very lucky!
