What is a "demerit"?
A demerit is a mark or penalty given to someone for a violation of rules or misconduct, often within a school or organizational setting. It is used as a way to track and record behavior that is not in line with expected standards. Accumulating demerits can lead to further consequences, such as suspension or loss of privileges. The purpose of demerits is to encourage good behavior and to provide a system for addressing misbehavior, often as part of a broader disciplinary policy.
Example

Demerits were assigned to individuals who violated the school's dress code policy.
