Requirements and Expectations
Appropriate Behavior:
All of us are here to learn, and our class will run smoother when we treat each other with respect
and courtesy. By treating your fellow students with respect and courtesy, they will treat you in that manner as well. You can show respect for your classmates by listening attentively. If you have questions, or disagree with another student's opinions, please wait until they are finished and raise your hand so that our discussions will be orderly and productive.
Attendance Policy:
1. Absences: You will be referred to your Assistant Principal beginning with your 5th absence.
2. Skips: A referral will be issued to the appropriate assistant principal in all cases of a student skipping class.
3. Tardiness: You will receive a detention for every tardy following your 2nd tardy.
Dress Code:
Student dress should be in good taste. It should not cause health or safety hazards, be distracting to other students, cause a disruption to the learning environment, or cause damage to school property. If you come to class dressed inappropriately, you will be sent to your Assistant
Principal. You will not be allowed to enter my classroom until you are dressed appropriately.
Grading:
Your first and second quarter grades will be weighted: Tests - 50%, Writing Assignments and Quizzes - 25%, Participation – 15%. HW 10%
Your grade will be computed on the following scale:

enter my classroom. - You must come to class with your textbook, notebook, journal, and pen or pencil. I do not have “extra” office supplies or “extra” copies of the textbook to lend to students.

- Work missed due to an excused absence(s) may be made up. You are allowed one
make-up day per day absence. - You will be informed of quizzes and tests, except for pop quizzes, at least three
days in advance. If you are absent the day before a quiz or test, you must
take the quiz or test on the assigned day. Unverified Absences must be cleared within 48 hours to an "Excused" or the result is a "0" for that test or quiz.(Per district policy)
- Beverages, food, candy, hats, and personal grooming are not allowed in class.

in class. - The use of ECD’s is prohibited. If you are caught using an ECD in my class, I will
ask for the device. Failure to hand over the device will be considered insubordination and will result in a suspension. - Students are allowed 3 bathroom passes per 10 week marking period.
- You will earn a grade of zero if you are tardy on a day we are taking a bell quiz.
- Talking or attempting to make contact with another student during a quiz or test
will result in a grade of zero. - If you are absent the day a paper is due, you must e-mail it to me, and I must
receive it, before the beginning of your class hour. Failure to do so will
result in a grade of zero. - In order to receive credit for this course, you must pass 60% of the semester
grades (each quarter is worth 40%, the Final Exam is worth 20%). - It is your responsibility, as a young adult, to print your essays before you come to class. I will not print your essays on the district printer.
