How to treat the worse teachers?

Question

Alright, first off im second in the race for valedictorian. that said, I hang on each teachers every word. when they say something incorrect my hand shoots up, asking if the facts are still the same. when a teacher acts stupid or like they have no idea about a particular area i really nail them with questions. When a teacher really gets on my nerves i don't take it lying down. 

example 1:
my science teacher made us as a class write all of our vocab rules in cursive (in 6th grade!!). Baffled and angered, i wrote like 4 petitions and had my mom send out a few emails. now we don't have to write out our vocab words in cursive =p 

example 2:
We had a psychotic computer teacher. I didn't even have her as a teacher. when i was walking to the gym to participate in our "mini-recess" she took one look at me and said "go to the office! now! you cannot wear those slippers!", they were soft boating shoes with hardsoles. I stood my ground "no, these are shoes, they have hard soles, i am not going to the office". she looked totally offended and then said "if you feel that way then we can go to the principal and see what he has to say on this matter!" (attempting to threaten me) I chuckled aloud and said in an almost mockatory way "sure, lets go right now, here ill lead the way" and i walked to the principal. he took a look at my boatshoes, and said "those are shoes. You can go" the computer teacher looked at me with disgust and walked away. i smiled back and strode to join my classmates.

My question is, do you think this is morally correct? to call out the stupid/wrong teachers.

No seriously, this made my day. If more kids were like you, standing up to arrogant and idiotic teachers, I would of liked school better.

Honestly, it's extremely irritating.

I know this kid who always interrupts teachers to correct them, and it drives me and a lot of other kids INSANE. They're your teachers, they're allowed to tell you what to do. Writing 4 petitions takes a lot more work than writing out vocab words. If a teacher tells you to do something, you're supposed to just shut up and do it.

On the shoe issue, you pushed it too far. You should've just been like "Sure, okay" and gone with her to the principal, because you knew it wouldn't be an issue anyway. 

Honestly, and I say this because you asked for the truth,  you sound cocky and arrogant.

Teachers aren't always stupid and wrong. They may do things that irritate you, but that doesn't make them stupid or wrong.

Just chill out and realize they're the ones in charge ; if you keep correcting them and smartmouthing, when you need a favor from one of them, you won't be able to get it. Stay on their good side, it will help you in the long run.

its hard to out smart teachers cause they are usually although never the smartest in my opinion especially at the high school level. They are older and more wise and more articulate than you and thus have a bigger vocabulary they also might try to run the question off or your statement and ask you a question even though you asked them one. Thus its hard to "out smart the teacher"

best bet you can do is outsmart them, Annoy them but make good grades, and "find where they live and trash their house at night and their car"

Teacher in high school are very arrogant. They try to outsmart and one up you because it makes them feel better and more in control. I personally love it when people are like you and call them out for it :)
