Students are expected to be in class in their seats with their work out when the tardy bell
rings.
Students should come to class prepared every day. This includes all of the supplies listed
above and a positive attitude for learning.
Students are expected to:
-
be in class daily
-
complete homework daily
- work together cooperatively to
solve problems
- use class time wisely
-
behave appropriately
-
treat others with respect
-
"do the right thing"
It
is essential that students attend class daily and are prompt. Much of the
learning will take place within small group interaction and class instruction.
If the student misses the class and/or doesn’t participate in the learning
process (do the work), it will be difficult to make up the work and/or learn
the concepts and skills necessary to succeed in this class. Please try to
schedule appointments outside of the school day.
If
is highly recommended that students keep up with the current work. If a
student falls behind it is difficult to catch up. The more the students misses,
the more difficult it is to catch up.
Food, candy, and /or drink is not allowed in the classroom
(bottled water is acceptable as long as the top can be capped).
Late work will only be accepted if the student is absent
and if the absence is excused. Students
have the number of days s/he was absent plus one more to complete and turn in
all late work.
