Canadian Schools Are Stoopid, Too
Sounds like this renegade Canadian teacher will soon be forced to sit in the corner, then write 300 times on the blackboard, "I will not help my students after school, I will not help my students after school..."

Chris Lackner reports in the National Post that English and history teacher Jack Nahrgang, this year's winner of the Stewart Award for excellence in teaching, "will be investigated for breaching union protocol." Nahrgang's offense? Breaking a union rule "only allowing teachers to provide extra assistance to students during a 15-minute window before or after class."
