6 Classroom Policies If you are absent, it is your responsibility to get the work you missed. There are folders with missing assignments per week, and students are responsible for checking the folder for the day they are absent. If a student is asked to leave class for any reason, he or she will receive one after school detention. These reasons can include, but are not limited to, disruptive behavior, not being prepared for class, or disrespectful behavior. Substitute Teacher Policy: If a student’s name is left by a substitute teacher for misbehaving, he or she will receive three detentions. If you make a mess, clean it up. Do not bother other peoples’ things.

7 Classroom Policies All essays or typed assignments must be printed out before class! If your student does not have a computer or printer at home, arrangements should be made to print in the library before class. Restroom breaks should be taken before or after class.
