1.) Lowers confidence in students when they see their writing marked up
2.) Students are not doing the learning when the teacher revises/edits the work
Also it’s not equitable. Different learners may use different kinds of grammar.
There aren't "different" kinds of grammar other than correct and incorrect.
Prescriptive linguist, i take it?
Just educated (not by MCPS).
Clearly not.

And yet somehow in the past it was done. Homework was also graded and corrected. Boggles the mind. Guess time was slower then.
Nah. Teachers just got tired of doing so much work off the clock.
And kids were actually disciplined at home, and parents didn’t go into every interaction with a teacher from an adversarial standpoint.
