Welcome to Sports and Entertainment Marketing 1!  It is my pleasure to have you in my class and I look forward to facilitating your exploration of the world of Sports and Entertainment Marketing and sharing skills and knowledge that you will be able to use throughout their lifetimes.  I have outlined below a brief summary of what will be covered in this class, how students will be graded, and my class rules.  I hope to partner with you to ensure you have the greatest opportunity for success.  With that in mind, please feel free to contact me anytime at Catherine.Stout@ucps.k12.nc.us if you should have any questions or concerns.  If you would like to keep up with our progress, I will be using a Canvas page that will include all assignments, readings, presentations, etc.  Additionally, grades will be posted on PowerSchool and you will be able to see any missing assignments there too.

Self-Control!  Only leave your seat when given permission or directed to by me.  (Sharpen your pencil before class, throw away trash on your way out.)
