Zero tolerance for any type of fighting/aggression. Both parties must be punished with a minimum of a suspension regardless of the circumstances. I once caught a 3 day suspension for shoving a bully off of me while he was punching me in the head over and over again. Even the principal said it was a dumb rule, but nobody questions dumb rules for some reason. I substitute teach and was ordered to write up a boy in 4th grade for "attacking" a girl who was repeatedly slapping him across the face (she's a notoriously cruel bully to anyone smaller/weaker than her) because he finally screamed at her in a primal rage and held his fist up, causing her to step back and fall down (all without him touching her). Anywho, what are some of the dumb rules from when you were in school?

Sixth formers can be given detention and have to come in for the full day regardless of their timetable. This is why I don't have A Levels.

One time half the boys in my class were rounded up at recess, including me, when one of them confessed to "balltapping" So I had to spend 5 minutes in the math teacher's room thumbing through the pocket bible until the teacher realized that the future goon would conceivably never do such rowdy and unruly activities with the other guys a little way too into sports so I was let go eventually. Also if you hosed up in the history class you were forced to do long subtraction of a number like 15,000 minus 15 to zero with proof of every work/step involved and if you messed up that you had to start all over again.

I got detention for 2 days in 6th grade for having terrible handwriting. She said I was being disrespectful or something and that was the rule I broke, and she made me practice with those notebooks they give you in like kindergarten to learn how to draw letters the whole time while lecturing me about how I won't be able to get a job without excellent script handwriting. My handwriting still hasn't improved much to this day and have been told trump's signature is even more legible than mine. Still ended up getting a job, so "have legible handwriting" is a dumb rule.

My school was very insecure about its relatively low-class status compared to other Catholic schools, so was obsessed with matters of appearance: uniform rules in particular. One time I had a teacher literally jump out from behind a wall, catching me with my top button undone. I had just come from p.e so missed it while changing and redoing my tie. They screamed at me about being a disgrace not just to myself but to the entire school, and that I didn't deserve to be there if I am going to drag down the reputation of my peers. Even more common was girls getting grilled for not having their socks up high enough. The problem with that was that the socks in the girl's uniform were of horrible quality, lacking any elastic at all at the top, so would fall down constantly. Teachers always acted like these minor uniform errors were something you were deliberately doing as an act of defiance. Also: our school had a very large rectangular grassed area at its centre, landscaped so it sat lower than the rest of the terrain and was bordered by kneehigh limestone walls and paths. This area was called "The Avenue" and cut the school almost completely in half, with a chapel and head office at opposite sides of its length and classrooms to either side of the much narrower width. While this looked nice it created some problems. Seeing as it cut the school almost completely in half it would get walked on a lot, causing the grass to die. To stop this it became against the rules to walk on The Avenue for roughly half of each year to regrow the dying areas. This meant that if you had classes on opposite sides of it you would have to circumnavigate the perimeter of the massive rectangle in the five minutes between each class, needing to sprint the great length and narrow width rather than just walking across the narrow portion. The ban on walking on The Avenue generally came in winter, at which point students are dressed in blazers and dress shoes, and there was no cover from rain.

If a naughty website comes up on a computer your on you get suspended and banned from computers. Writing a bat file to open goatse after 15 minutes and putting that in startup got a bunch of people in trouble. A letter went home to everyone's parents about the website. Yes my high school goatsed every parent. After a few months they figured it out. The pro strat was checking the startup folder cutting the bat file to the C:\ drive reboot and then put it right back in for the next sucker.

I think it turned into you have to correct and grade an assignment and it has to count for it to be assigned in the first place.

i and a bunch of friends got 60 minutes detention for having a snowball fight after school. we were in the front schoolyard going home and were therefore 'fighting on school property.' the same lady teacher who did this arbitrarily encouraged a snowball fight a year later (one of my first powerful memories of hypocrisy).
