Tardy

If you are not in the seat BEFORE the bell rings, you are considered tardy and will have to deal with the consequences.

Consequences for failing to observe the rules will be dealt with on a situational basis and may include:

 

1. Verbal warning

There will be a zero tolerance for cheating within this classroom.  If a student is caught cheating, an automatic zero will be given for the assignment/exam.  Notification will also be sent to parents, letting them know about the situation.

 

Food and Drink:

 Please do not bring food, candy, or drinks to class.

 

Phone/Electronic Device Policy:

Listening to music, with ear buds, while you work is fine. You cannot use ear buds during lectures or while instructions are given.  Remove them completely from your ears. No one else should be able to hear your music. Cell Phones are put away—music is the exception.

 

 

Class Materials:

Students are responsible for bringing all necessary supplies to class everyday.  Included would be: Chromebook and charger, notebook, any assigned work, writing utensil, and paper.”

 

Bathroom Passes

You are only issued 2 bathroom passes per 6 weeks so use them wisely. I strongly recommend that you use the restroom before coming to class.
