This should be a simple problem but I have wasted hours on it. Any help would be appreciated. [I have taken my code back to almost the very beginning.]
========================
The student scores need to be summed.
========================
import json
import urllib
url = "http://www.wickson.net/geography_assignment.json"
response = urllib.urlopen(url)
data = json.loads(response.read())
lst1 = list(data.items())
print lst1
