OP I came across this quote in an article on The Hidden Costs of Public Education (Birmingham, Alabama newspaper). The lady being quoted below is the curriculum coordinator for the state Department of Education.
"The law is clear, Brown said. "You can't charge for what is required. If they (students) are going to be prohibited in any manner from graduating or passing, then that's when they would definitely be infracting the rules," she said.
Has Ms Brown illegally verbalized a noun? I can't find a verb form of "infraction" in my MW. But since Ms Brown is a professional educator, albeit from a state not known for its cutting-edge education system, I thought I'd better check with you folks.
