 HS Report - Complete Bullshit

So I wrote a 10 page report on the Drug War. I personally thought it was amazing. I wanna be a journalist possibly in the future so I loved writing to report.
I hand the fucker in about 3 months ago. Waited...waited...waited...nothing. I go up to the teacher and ask her about it. She says I got an A-. Okay...I can deal with that. Then about a month later she reads off the grades...now she reads off that I got a B-. Okay now Im kinda pissed. Then I FINALLY get my report back (2 days before the end of school) and the back page says "Need More Of You; Where's Work Citied?; C"
I almost shit myself. I handed in a work citied, and MORE OF ME? I citied all laws and then included my personal opinion in the conclusion. This really rocked my boat. Okay...so from an A- to a B- to a FUCKIN C!!!
Found out...the bitch is a Clinton lover and I did include a part where Clinton was a fighter against the Drug War and in my conclusion I wrote how I did not like his political term and thought he did less than helpful to our country.
Pretty much the cunt graded me on politics...but then she felt there still needed to be MORE OF ME in the fuckin report.
GOD DAMNIT!!!
It's not like I've never done cocaine before but, on the whole, if I can't see dancing elephants, I'm not interested.

That sucks! She should not be able to tell you a grade and then change it, regardless of what her issues were for giving you a lower grade. That seems like something the teacher should not be able to do. I think in HS I had a lot of papers graded based on things other than their content. I don't know if it was always political in nature, more like personal. I was very much into 'showing off my protests' in HS, like wearing 'FUCK CHRISTIANS' t-shirts and crazy shit like that, and I often felt that I got low grades because the teachers simply didn't want to agree with my views. Yeah, HS is like that. The cool thing is, if you get lucky and go to a college with good teachers, it is usually much different. At least for me college was much more liberal, and I felt I was graded more on content with things. University professors many times actually like people like us, I think alot of the hippies in the 60's/70's decided to be teachers.(The stoner sect of the baby boomers). I even had an Anthropology teacher that told the whole class about doing peyote with a Native American group when he went to study them, he full on participated in all of the rituals, he was a great guy. And it was funny, he always wore a suit and tie, but then sandals with no socks. Haha... I love liberal teachers...

Del,
Can you not take this up with the school principle of something? I don't know how it works in your school, but in ours if we ever thought we were marked unfairly for anything then you could request that our work was re-marked by an alternative teacher.
Fancy posting your report? I'd be interested to read it.

when writing a report you should avoid using your opinions in a first person manner. A report is a presentation of facts..not opinion.
If your writing an editorial then the opinions are welcome.
However an a- to a C is quite drastic.
On a side note when i was in college we had to give a speech on a contrversal subject and i chose prayer in school.
All my speechs up to this point were A's. and i received a C because as i quote "Your speech was too controversal"
that sucked
Relax, Relax, Relax.....it's just a little pin prick * there'll be no more AARRGGHHH!!!! but you may feel a little sick.....
