Materials 4 A textbook will be provided for each student and you are responsible for the book you check out. 4 Everyone must bring materials (specifically for this class alone), which include paper, pencils or pens, and their student planner to class everyday. 4 You may keep your binder/notebooks on your periods shelf if you choose.

Tardies 4 You must physically be in the room and in your seat when the bell finishes ringing or you will be considered tardy. 4 If you are more than 10 minutes late without a written note from another teacher, you will be considered skipping and will be written up. 4 If you accumulate 3 unexcused tardies then you will be written up and serve an after school detention. Each additional 3 tardies will be written up as well.

Bell Ringers 4 When you come in the class, you will get into your assigned seats, turn in any homework from the night before, and get out paper and begin to work on your bell ringer for the day. 4 In order to get full credit for bell ringers you need to write out the bell ringer and your response to it.

Teacher’s Desk & Personal Belongings 4 You are not permitted to sit behind my desk, touch or look at my computer, or touch stuff on my desk unless otherwise told to do so. 4 If this becomes a problem you will stay after class and discuss it with me.

Going To The Restroom 4 Each student will be allowed to use the restroom 5 times during our 18 week course, so use your visits wisely. You may also only go one at a time. 4 No student will be allowed to use the restroom 10 min. after the bell rings or 10 min. before the bell is going to ring. 4 If you are or have been written up for smoking, you will lose all your bathroom privileges for the 18 weeks. I may also revoke your bathroom privileges if I know/think you’re a smoker/dipper. 4 If you are tardy to class you may not leave the room that day for any reason.

Late Work 4 Late work will result in a zero for the assignment. 4 The only exception to this rule is an absence from class. 4 This may sound harsh at first, buy you will find that you don’t have a lot of homework but rather class work that may need to be finished at home. You will have time in class to complete most assignments.

You should find me when you return from an absence. 4 You will have the number of days missed to make-up an assignment. 4 You need to get missing bell ringers/exit slips from your partner or someone in class.
