I. Classroom Policies

 

  • General -  Active participation and successful completion of assigned work are mandatory in order to receive credit for this class.  Assigned work includes but is not limited to bellringers, classwork, homework, activities, lab work, quizzes, and exams (weekly, nine-week, semester, and final exams)

 

  • Attendance - It is the STUDENT’S RESPONSIBILITY  TO OBTAIN MISSED WORK. An absence does not excuse a student from the responsibility of completing assignments or tests. Any work not completed due to excused absences will result in a zero.

 

  • Make-up work -After each absence from school, it is the responsibility of the student to make arrangements to do make-up work missed during the absence with his/her teacher, following his/her return. All make-up work will be completed within the same number of school days the student misses from school. 

 

  • Bellringers -  Each student is required to answer bellringer questions at the beginning of class. The bellringer grade will contribute to the overall nine-week grade. Bellringers are graded at least once per nine weeks and are worth a minimum of 100 points.

 

  • Classwork/Homework - Always do your best on any assignments (substitute work included) and be prepared for classwork and/or homework to be checked and/or graded for correctness and completeness.

 

  • Communication -Google Classroom's purpose is to facilitate paperless communication and assignments between teachers and students. Each class will have its own code for students to join their specific classroom. Announcements and assignments will be posted here throughout the school year for each class. Students are responsible for obtaining the correct class code and signing up for the class on Google Classroom.

 

II. Classroom Rules/Procedures

 

        *Chewing gum, food, or drinks of any kind (except water) are not allowed.*

 

  • Entering the classroom - Obtain assigned laptop and go directly to assigned seat. Complete the daily bellringer. 

 

  • During classroom instruction and activities - Disruptions that take away from the learning process are not acceptable. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action.

 

  • Exiting the classroom -  Stay seated until the bell rings and students are dismissed by the teacher. 

 

  • Restroom Breaks - Students are to use the restroom between classes. If the bell rings and a physical body is not in the classroom, the student is tardy for the class.
