is it illegal to keep students after the bell rings
If your teacher is holding you back because of other kids. being disruptive then that teacher is violating the fourth. Geneva Convention. They can't keep you, as soon as the bell rings, you are. released from the schools legal custody, there for they can't make you stay longer then is required by Law. can tell you that asking for a different teacher is generally not the right answer, because almost all teachers use group punishment when too many kids are not behaving. In fact, I don't think my kids' have had a single teacher that doesn't use group punishment.
