6. What are the Rules in this Classroom?
1. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. This includes those given by me, administrators, and staff. Please ask me for help on something you don't understand. I won't do your work for you but we're in this together-- Teacher, Student and Parent. I'll do my best to be clear and concise, but you must PAY ATTENTION.
2. COME TO CLASS ON TIME, PREPARED WITH ALL REQUIRED MATERIAL. Always assume that you need your textbook, pen, pencil, paper and notebook despite any special period. ** Be in your seat before the bell rings. This means book bags off desks, book out ready to work. Being late can hurt you grade.
3. TURN IN YOUR ASSIGNMENTS ON TIME. It is your responsibility to keep up with your work. Grades can drop 5-10 points for everyday late
4. ALLOW STUDENTS TO LEARN AND TEACHERS TO TEACH. I'll treat you with respect and consideration and it's expected that you will treat peers and adults in a courteous and respectful manner. Adopt an attitude of a scholar. This classroom is ours, not mine or yours.
5. KEEP THE CLASSROOM (and desks) CLEAN. Before leaving class check your area. Pick up paper and return furniture to its original place unless otherwise instructed. Put trash in the trash can.
6. ETHICAL BEHAVIOR. Do your own work. Work that has been copied from others or plagiarized will not be accepted. **** Cheating on tests will result in a zero on that test and parental contact.

Be Organized: It is your responsibility to keep up with missing assignments and turn them in.
Work turned in late will lose points. Any assignment that is missing goes into the gradebook as a 1, which means it can be made up, but if it is not made up the grade will stand. Please see syllabus for specific criteria

8. Absences:
Be Here: More than four absences in a term = 69 for the term. More than eight absences in a semester = 69 for the class.
Be Punctual: In my classroom, on time means you are in your desk when the bell rings.
Anywhere else, you are late. Every 2 tardies is one absence, and 4 tardies earns a referral to administration.
