Mrs Tirado was sacked after raising concerns about a policy of not giving students below 50 per cent when grading them.
The school introduced a rule stating that she couldn't mark students work lower than 50 per cent so she raised concerns about the policy, reports the Daily Mirror.
The school's Student and Parent's Handbook says that no teacher is allowed to give a student a grade below 50 per cent - even if what they hand in is incomplete or substandard. The teacher gave her Year Eight social studies class a fortnight to carry out a project, but at the end of that time period a number of them didn't submit anything.
In the comment section the teacher also revealed that she had to write the message on the board twice as staff at the school erased the first message. A spokesperson for the school district said: "Ms. Tirado was released from her duties as an instructor because her performance was deemed sub-standard and her interactions with students, staff, and parents lacked professionalism and created a toxic culture on the school's campus." The spokesperson also mentioned the schools grading policy, stating that there "isn't any policy prohibiting a teacher from recording a zero for work not turned in.
