Classroom Expectations

 

  1. Beginning of class:

    1. Tardy: A student is tardy if they are either not in the classroom when the bell rang or in the classroom but not in their seat when the bell rang. For every 3 tardies, students will receive a mark on their card.

    2. Absent: Students are responsible for obtaining work missed during their absence. Students must make arrangements to make up tests, quizzes, etc. outside of regular class time. If a student knows they will be absent in advance, it is advised that they ask for homework prior to being absent.

    3. Materials: agenda, pencil, homework, book

    4. Seating: Students may sit in any desk they choose, however they will be moved if deemed necessary by the teacher.

  2. During class:

    3. Leaving During Class: During lectures, students should only leave due to an emergency. During non-lecture time, students may leave with teacher permission, as notated in their agenda book. Any student caught without an agenda book in the hallway will have their card marked.
