Student Expectations Mind your manners. Be respectful to everyone at all times.  Speak Spanish as much as possible and always try your best!  Bring all necessary materials to class every day. If I am speaking when the bell rings, please wait for me to finish.  Be on time for class and sit in your assigned seats when the bell rings. No cell phones are to be used in class. It is disruptive to the class and to me. More importantly, it is disruptive to your learning.
