Tardiness If you are tardy, I follow the tardy policy outlined in your student handbook.  If you arrive to class after the bell has rung, you are expected to hand me your pass slip, enter the classroom quietly, take your assigned seat, work quietly and by yourself, waiting for further instruction. Not in your seat at the bell will result in a Tardy!

Absences Go to the Planner at the Absent Station See what you missed Take any work placed in the folder Talk with a friend to see if any notes that were taken. Copy from a friend. Given one day to make up missed work for every day missed. Marked late after that.

Missed Quizzes/Tests Make arrangements to take quizzes and tests immediately.  It is your responsibility to make these arrangements; I will not track you down.   If you do not make-up quizzes or tests in a timely manner (within 3 days upon returning to school), then you will earn a “zero” on the quiz or test. 

Before the Bell to leave for your next class… Pick up after yourself Be in your assigned seat No Talking Remember, I dismiss you, not the bell
