Grammar School of the Day: A school in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, is stirring up some mixed feelings toward a new policy that allows students only five grammatical errors per writing assignment.
“Students and parents were somewhat shocked to hear these changes,” wrote a Summit Christian Academy student reporter. ”The immediate reaction from the student body was that the changes were too harsh.”
Per the new policy, students who have more than five errors will be forced to rewrite their paper, and their top possible score will be capped at 75%.
“We have some who are thrilled and others who are highly concerned because it’s tied to scholarship dollars,” the academy’s prinicipal, Kim Gill, told Romenesko.
“One concession we’ve made is if it’s the same error that’s repeated in the paper, the teacher has the disgression [sic] to say, for example, I’m going to take these five run-on sentences and count them as one error.”
Disgression? See me after class.

When I woke up this morning to the photos of Penn State students protesting, I initially thought “college students are stupid” and went to make my coffee. But there’s something bigger here that’s been bothering me for awhile.
This week, football fans and Penn State alums are in an uproar because…
