General Guidelines

When in my classroom, you are expected to comply with the following:

 

• Abide by all rules described in the Irvington High SchoolHand Book
• Be on Time, In your floor spot 4 minutes after the late bell
• Be Prepared, In a  Black,Grey,Navy Blue, or White crew-neck t-shirt and black, grey,or navy blue gym shorts/ sweat pants and sneakers (all jewelry must be removed) and a combination lock (for a locker for your gym period only)
• Cooperate

Negative Consequences

Unfortunately poor decisions are made. Here's what will happen:

 

   1  Warning

   2. Written behavior assignment to be completed by student; class seat changed, student/teacher conference, or parent contacted.

   3. Detention (lunch or after school); parent contacted as necessary.

   4. Parent Contacted (parent/teacher/student behavior contract if needed).

   5. Student sent to designated principal’s office with disciplinary referral form.

 

SEVERE CLAUSE: If a student is severely disruptive, exhibits defiant behavior, or becomes a threat to the safety of others in the classroom, the student will be immediately sent to the principal’s office.

 

NOTE: Inappropriate behavior for a substitute teacher or any other classroom guest will result in a written behavior assignment,parent phone call, and detention.

 

OUR CLASSROOM PROCEDURES

To make our class time safe and productive, follow these basic procedures each day:

   1. Come on time and prepared for class

   2. Class Objective and Activities will be visual. Read them and begin first activity.     

   3. Do not interrupt to ask to use the bathroom, this is the only class that you have the opportunity to go at the beginning and end when           you change.(unless extreme emergency)

   4. Listen for the Whistle.  When it is blown there is a teacher trying to give you instruction.

   5. I will dismiss you from your floor spots, not the bell or noise in the hallway.
