5. Credit Recovery Students
Credit for work in prior classes:
Some students are given the opportunity to carry over credit for assignments or tests passed in prior classes
In order to take advantage of this, you will be given a time period in which all work for this class must be done
If the work is not completed in the given time period, you will NOT receive credit for prior class assignments or tests, and will then need to repeat the whole course

6. Grading Periods

7. Due Dates and Absences
Since all work is online, being absent is not an excuse to get your work done and turned in on time.
You may do the work anytime, anywhere, as long as you have internet connection.
Also, if I am not at school and there is a substitute the same standard applies, as well as the expectation that you will follow all classroom rules and guidelines 

8. Flexing Out
You may “flex” out of class after the first D/F notice, meaning you DO NOT need to attend class, as long as you have at least 70% in the class
You are still expected to meet all deadlines
If your grade drops below 70%, you will be required to attend class everyday.
If at that time, you do not attend class, you will be marked absent and your parents may receive a phone call from the school
You are always welcome to attend class anytime. I will be here 

9. Flexing Out 6th Period
Students flexing out 6th period MUST leave campus
When you flex out, you must sign out at attendance when you leave.
*If you have Hayden or Morris, you may flex to their classroom with both of our consents

10. Class Time When in class, you are expected to do school work.
If you are finished with the work for this class, you may work on other school work
Cell phones are to stay in your pocket or backpack and NOT be used in class unless I give the okay

13. Next is a big list of “Do Not’s”

14. iPads Rules
These are all logical appropriate rules for the use of school iPads but I will spell it out, so there are no misunderstandings:
Do not download anything on the iPad
Do not play games on the iPad.
Do not load a VPN app.
Do not use the camera or screenshot function
Do not change any of the settings
Do not go to any websites except those used for this class
Do not scratch the surface of the iPad
Do not take off the iPad cover

15. iPads
If you find anything on the iPad that does not comply with these rules please show it to me right away. If you do not, you could be held responsible.
Sounds a little stressful, but as long as you are here to work on academics and are serious about passing this class, you will have no problems.

16. Restroom Use the restroom before class
If you must use the restroom do it before the PowerPoint lecture begins or wait until it is over
Ask and receive permission before you leave
Limit using the restroom to once a week during this period (not a daily habit of leaving class)
If you come to class late, you may not leave for a drink or the restroom during class.

17. Questions? Ask Mrs. DeVault anytime you need help or clarification
You may text me at (951) (school cell phone)
I will be available by text until 6:00pm each night.
Again, text message only
