Rules and “Pet Peeves”

1. Cell phones and headphones remain put away unless you have been given permission to use them.
2. Please raise your hand to speak during class discussions. When someone is talking to the class we show them the courtesy of listening.
3. Classroom vernacular may be relaxed but I need you to exercise restraint. I do not like to hear profanity.  You are in a professional environment.  Please conduct yourself as so.
4. Clean up after yourself.
5. Be prepared in class each day.

 Daily work and homework will not be accepted late.  Projects may be turned in late with a 10 point deduction for one day and 20 points for two days (Past 2 days will be a zero).  Tests may only be re-taken for a maximum of 75 per district policy.

Make-up work for absences

2. Students will be allowed one school day for each day that they are absent from a class to make up work without late consequences.  The student can make up work for all absences and administrative suspensions.
