I love how high school teachers lose their student's work and then try to say that the student(s) never handed in the assignment.
This is what is happening to me right now, and I am the top student in my class too; hordes of high school teachers seem to dislike the idea of admitting that they lost your work.
Has this ever happened to anyone?
Tell me your story!

Brittany B: YESSSSSSS!!! That is exactly what I constantly go through lol. I will be going into my Senior Year this upcoming school year and I am hoping that this will not happen again, as it always does, but I know that it will.
It is quite aggravating because my accounting teacher does that with me too. She lost some study guide that I handed in, meanwhile I had handed it in with two other people directly in front of her lol.
Teachers are odd; glad to know that I'm not the only one dealing with them!

Flaggirl: I too get that Honors BS from all of my teachers. They use it to their advantage just to make their job easier.

Oh man, hasn't it happened to us all!
I just graduated from high school, and my 12th grade English teacher lost so many people's projects and essays! And plus, she was very fond of giving people 80's in the class for God knows why...I mean can't anybody pass your class with a freakin A this semester. Even this guy in my class who was ranked, like, no. 4 or 5 in our class of 718 barely passed with and A. Every kid in her 1st period class was annoyed with her.
She even goes on to say, "If I tell you to put your work on my desk so that I may grade it, don't listen to me...Just put it in you notebook, so I won't lose it" I mean, come on, she even admits that she loses people work
Yet when people approach her during class to ask about it, she goes on to say, "Don't come to me during class to try to talk about missing work, do it after class!" Yet that's nearly impossible with the small transition time we have after class.
And when I had to recite some prelude to Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, she was supposed to give me a grade while I recited it to see how well I did it...well about a month afterward, so calls me up to her desk and asks me whether I ever did this or not...
My response was,"Uh, yeah". Then she goes on to say "Are you sure, because I don't have a grade down for you?" I mean she was there, right in front of me while I recited it. So I ask, "So what, you want me to recite it again,because I know I did it before." After a couple of days of looking, she says she has found my grade.
Me and a lot of other people agreed that she needs to retire already... and she was named Teacher of the Year this school year, Ha!

Yes it has but the teacher lost only a page of the assignment. Becase we turned in so few assignments it afected my grade a lot. I couldn't do anything about it because "honors" students don't make "mistakes" like that.

there's more often than not no reply to handling b*tchy lecturers, my cousin has the identical hindrance in university too. i suppose you'll be able to simply attempt to keep out of her method or provide her the identical cure and no longer reply her in many instances and do not even make an effort to take a look at an provoke her or say well morning. quit looking to be so fine to her and perhaps she's going to suppose you've got a few appreciate for your self.

haha oh yes it has.
My 7th grade teacher lost a 2 feet high stack of papers we did.
EVERYONE's grade dropped like 5 points. I went from a B to a C and I lot of people got pissed because they had 100's and they went to 95s.
She claimed that we never DID IT.
She's given me plenty of zeros.
I know exactly how you feel. =D

Yep, it has. My 5th grade teacher lost my book report. He claimed I never handed it in, but when the end-of-the-year cleaning came, he found it in his file. He apologized profusely and averaged it in my final grade for the class.

And as for students-- has anyone ever told the teacher that the dog ate his/her homework, little brother tore it up, or the locker was broken into?
