THIS WAS A LESSON ON THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, PLEASE DON'T GET OUR AMAZING TEACHER IN TROUBLE, THANK YOU.

The 8th graders in the QVMS’s U.S. History class, dictated by Mr. Duvernay are facing major inequities and unfair treatment. Mr. Duvernay, who is responsible for educating and shaping young minds, has consistently demonstrated an unfair approach to grading, leaving many of us frustrated and exasperated.

It's not just about a few bad grades or a lack of fairness in class; it’s about a consistent pattern of poor grading practices that hinder our education and damage our trust in the academic system, plus our overall grade. This is the truth echoed by many of our classmates as well. We often find ourselves dealing with unclear guidelines, inconsistent grading, and a dictative, unstable classroom environment that feels more like a battlefield than a place to learn. The deadlines, grades, and requirements for so many assignments are unreasonable, especially with an hour or maybe an hour and a half of class time to work on 40+ sentences with hand-drawn pictures. DO NOT DO THE PROJECT. IM REPEATING IT, DO NOT DO THE PROJECT. DO NOT TURN IT IN. PROTEST.

To continue, when we approach him with questions, instead of providing guidance or clarity, we are often met with sarcasm or answers that stray from the topic. These pop quizzes and the equality/superstar treatment is unfair. Constructive feedback, clear guidelines, and a respectful atmosphere should be the norm, not the exception. Random Pop Quizzes with information that we barely learned given to 2-3 people shouldn’t dictate the grade of 30.

He should not have to bribe loyalty out of his students, but he must because otherwise they would not be loyal to him as he is cruel, confusing, and bipolar. We’re superstars one minute and to be treated like failing kids the next. Along with that, his unreasonable assignments and grades have also gotten out of hand. All around, he is a hypocritical dictator, so what must we do? Revolt.

We must take action now to address this situation. We want a revolution and here's our revelation, so hear our declaration: We hold these truths to be self-evident that everyone must join us in revolting against the overly complex teacher, MR. DUVERNAY. Do not be a loyalist, be revolutionary.
