The school had a points system for discipline -- you got points for infractions, and after three points you were sent to the office.
So for example, not having a pencil was one point, not having done your homework was two points, fighting was three points, and so on.
What I never understood, and what no teacher was ever able to explain to me, was why being disruptive in class was a one-point offense, but being inattentive (presumably quietly, since you weren't being disruptive) in class was a two-pointer.
