Class Procedures Take care of our classroom! This room is OUR learning environment. I have supplies to help you in my classroom and computers we can all use. If that privilege is abused, those items will not be available to our class anymore. Remember – you are responsible for any damage to any computers, mice, or keyboards in this classroom.

Leaving the Classroom When you’re here, plan to stay. My door is not a revolving one. Students will only be allowed to leave the room in EXTREME EMERGENCIES as defined by me. NEVER stop class instruction to ask to leave the room. The answer will always be no.

Absent? Arrive to class EARLY the day after your absence. Ask your CLASSMATES for help. Ask MR. NIGRELLI for clarification. Check the class WEBSITE for more information. I will not hound you for your make-up work. It is your job to take care of your business! Be aware of due dates.
