Expectations
III.
Be on time: You should be in your seat working on Think & Dos when the
bell rings.
Be prepared: This includes bringing all of your materials to class every day,
completing all assignments by the required due date, participating in class
activities, and completing make up work in a timely fashion.
Be polite: Students are expected to be respectful to each other and to the
teacher (myself or a substitute) both inside the classroom and in the hall.
This includes respecting school property, others' belongings, and the
thoughts and feelings of others.
Be professional: This includes turning in neat and legible work. This also
includes respect to the teacher and your classmates when any one person is
talking.
Cell Phones: Phones are only allowed in school-designated zones. Improper
use of phones will result in discipline as stated in the student handbook.
Phone use in my classroom is a privilege that can be taken away if abused. If
I declare a red zone day for phones (such as test and quiz days) you MUST
abide by the red zone rules.
Class Participation: 10% of your grade is based on class participation.
Attendance works with this grade; if youre not in classhow can you
participate?
