Classroom Rules RESPECT! All students are required to show everyone in my classroom respect at all times. PREPARED! Come to class prepared, I am not a bookstore or your mom. NO TALKING WHEN SOMEONE ELSE IS TALKING! You won’t like it when it happens to you, so don’t do it to others. 5/4/2019 Mr. T - Biology

Grading Class work counts for 50% of your grade as per Baltimore County guidelines. Homework counts for 20% of your grade and is important as we meet every other day. Test/Quizzes/Projects count as 25% of your grade. Many students fail because they do not take unit exams and short cycle quizzes seriously. Drill counts for 5% of your grade. Missed Work students will have same number of days to make up work as they were absent. Missed homework can be made up for partial credit up to date the assessment for unit is given. 5/4/2019 Mr. T - Biology
