The concept of “banned words” (other than the offensive stuff, of course) in a classroom is so funny to me. There is no way that the person who came up with that wasn’t the sourest loser ever.
I’m a school bus driver and we’re supposed to not allow foul language. It’s only a problem on the middle school runs, and it’s not really worth the effort on my part to do anything about it. I’m just happy when I can unload all the kids and nothing has been set on fire.

Also of all the words banned, there is only one they are not allowed to spell
Plus kids will find a way. Our english teacher didn’t want us to say ‘shit’, but to use ‘sugar’ instead.
There was a lot of ‘bullsugar’ and similar in that class.
yeah this just basically “come up with a bunch new things that’ll annoy us”
Try teaching middle school. You’ll understand. That being said, teachers mostly do this as a joke.

“What’s the matter Lisa? You’re usually the first one out of this deathtrap!”
Nah few teachers are actually serious about it. My cousin is a school teacher, she takes all these a little too seriously
I always assumed (hoped) these were put up as jokes by the teachers. “Dang it Jeremy that’s another one for the board!” type of banter.
I remember one of my teachers banning “doh!”. It didn’t last very long.
