MAKE-UP AND LATE ASSIGNMENTS

At the beginning of each section of the course, the class will discuss the concepts and
assignments that will be covered during that section. Students work on most
assignments on an individual basis and can progress through them at their own pace.
There will be occasional class periods throughout the semester when the class will work
on learning and reinforcing concepts together.
Because of the participating nature of this class, and the availability of equipment,
make-up work on computer assignments will be allowed only by completing the work in
periodic after school lab times.
Class assignments cannot be done outside the classroom even if the student has
access to the same version of software used in class.
CLASS RULES
1. Disruptive behavior will not be tolerated.
2. Student must have and maintain Internet access and student email access at
school.

The district policy regarding cell phone usage will be adhered to in this course:
The Board of Education recognizes that electronic communication devices such as cell
phones and beepers
are commonly used by parents and their children to communicate with each other.
Hunter High School and
the Granite School District accept no responsibility for the loss of or damage to any
electronic/communication device. These same devices also have the potential of
disrupting the orderly
operation of the school. The Board of Education directs each school to establish rules
allowing the
possession of electronic/communication devices and regulating their use in accordance
with the following
direction:
Hunter High School discourages the use of communication devices for non-instructional
purposes.
Communication devices that are used in violation of school rules will be
confiscated and disciplinary
action will be taken.
1.
1st Offense - Teacher confiscates the device.
2.
2nd Offense Teacher confiscates device and gives to administration - parent
picks up device
from administration after school.
3.
3rd Offense Same as 2nd offense and student is suspended from school.
Office personnel do not deliver messages to students from parents or guardians;
students are not permitted to receive calls during class except in an emergency
situation. (An administrator or counselor will make the determination as to what
constitutes an emergency situation.) Students may not leave the classroom to
answer pager or cell phones. In case of an emergency, parents/guardians should
contact the Main Office (385-646-5360).
To allow students to learn from others by both giving and receiving feedback, and to
assist me in using instructional time as efficiently as possible, I would like to have
students correct one another=s work. Parent/Guardian, by signing this outline below
you are giving your permission for this practice to take place.
I have read this course outline, by signing this form I agree to be bound by the rules
of this course.
Please complete the following information and turn this form in to Mr. Sillito. Please
