The word is seditious. If I'm not using it correctly could you please rewrite the sentance so that it makes sense, WITHOUT using the word rebellious
Due to her seditious rebellion against the school’s policies Addie faced many consequences.

Because her seditious entreaties to the student body led to a riot on campus, Addie faced serious consequences from the school administration.
The definition of seditious is arousing to rebellion against a legitimate authority, so you can't have a seditious rebellion at all.

From what I looked up online it appears correctly used to me. The word siditious means - Of, relating to, or having the nature of sedition.
Given to or guilty of engaging in or promoting sedition (quoted from the American Heritage Dictionary.
Another way I try and verify a word is used correctly is by taking that word out and putting in the meaning of it into the sentence I'm reading or writing.
"Due to her having the a rebellion nature against the school's policies Addie faced manyconsequences."
As you can see that seems to work. So it would seem seditious is used correctly. Good luck with your homework.

No. Since seditious already means rebel against. The word rebellion is not necessary. Pick another verb/verb clause.
