7. Ms. Whittet’s Expectations This classroom is a Safe Zone. No one is allowed to say anything ugly about you or to you while you are here. You are not allowed to talk about others, and others are not allowed to talk about you. You are free to ask/answer questions, share your feelings, and be your true self. If someone calls you a name or is negative to you, they will be asked to apologize and say three positive things about you. Everyone is expected to follow the procedures of the room. I am firm, fair and consistent. This will be the BEST year!
