Classroom Rules
1. Be on time and in your seat when the bell rings. If you are late for class without an excuse three times, it could result in a detention.
2. Be prepared for class. Bring your assignment book, folder, notebook, textbook, pencil, and homework to every class unless told otherwise. Failure to bring a completed assignment book to class for a third time in the grading period could result in a detention.
3. Respect yourself, others, and school property.
4. Classroom misconduct or disturbances will usually result in a warning. Repeated problems could result in a detention.
Evaluation
Your evaluation in this course will be based on the following:
1. Exams and quizzes.
2. Projects and reports.
3. Homework. If you miss three homework assignments for a grading period, it could result in a detention.
4. Final Exam. This will count as 7% of your final grade.
I use the school wide grading scale as found in your student handbook.
Discipline
If necessary, discipline will be administered as describe above. Consequences may also include a written assignment. Refer to the student handbook for discipline guidelines.
Cheating
Any cheating will result on a score of zero for that activity.
