Cracking Down

Uniform infractions. Tardiness. Social networking- violations many more Bullis students are getting detentions for.
Teachers are starting to strictly enforce the rules creating a harsh backlash from the student population. The faculty believes that order has to be restored within the Bullis halls. Teachers feel that theres a lack of respect within the student-teacher relationships. Many students believe that this is outrageous because it seems like its coming "out of the blue."Students feel like the rules have been relaxed for a while, so this sudden implementation of rules is shocking almost everyone. Some of the infractions can be seen as "petty" but the faculty believe their authority is defied through rule infringements.
Even the nature of detention has changed. Instead of just sitting in a classroom and doing homework, students in detention now have to either clean busses or the lunchroom. Does this have higher or an equal affect on the student? Would this help them better "learn their lesson." I guess these are question that will be answered in the coming weeks.
So kids, watch what you say, watch what you wear, watch what you type, and watch the clock. Dention awaits you.
