week 6 blog entry
Back in high school was when this subject came closest to me. My senior year I took a test in math class and I knew my stuff. I was confident all the way through the test and finished rather quickly. When I got to the front of the classroom and set my test on the podium my teacher quickly said "Hey Joe, can I see you in the hall for a second?". When we got into the hallway he immediately accused me of cheating on the exam. I was extremely upset since I did nothing to even spark the accusations. The issue went all the way to the principle where I sat down and had a meeting with him. In the meeting we talked about the situation and he found me not at fault for cheating. I knew that if I just stuck with my story and relied on my reputation as a good student and an honest person, that I would be fine.

Im glad you did not have to face punishments for something that you did not do. Your a smart kid.
ReplyDeleteThis is a hard situation that many of us have had to deal with within our learning careers as it comes down to a he said, she said situation, leaving your word against that of the teachers. Glad to see you came out on top.
ReplyDeleteI am very confused why your teacher even thought that you were cheating just because I guess you finished fast. IF anything he should be happy because he has a bright student. Its nice to see that reputation a long with the truth prevails.
