Just seems like basic common sense imo. I was in gifted (at a public school in the ghetto in NBR no less) starting in 2nd grade and this type of stuff was also expected of us as well.

Put that expectation in the syllabus and always mention it every time before the due date. Kids need constant reminders the first few weeks before they get inline.
Once in a while use one student who screws up as an example just to scare the little frickers.

Teachers are paid to teach the curriculum/objectives set forth by the state or school district.
Student grades should not be a reflection of teacher opinions, whether or not they got a letter signed by a parent, or brought in canned goods for a food drive, etc. This happens too damn much in the schools.

Part of my expectations for class assignments. Why can't they follow my instructions?
My instructions and expectations are clearly provided and communicated from the first day of school until the last.

Oh come on. He isn't asking them to have the same political opinion as he does. He's telling them to turn in neat work. That's something that carries over into many facets of life.
