John Merrow - Teachers Make a Difference - The Ethics Teacher

The transcript describes a memorable teacher at Maine High School who taught an ethics class with unique grading rules: students could only receive an A, B, or incomplete. Many students initially failed to complete their work, leading to interventions by parents and the school board. The teacher stood firm on his grading policy, emphasizing the importance of ethics and keeping one's word. Ultimately, students learned valuable ethical and life lessons, and the teacher's approach was admired.
