4. Use appropriate language in school.
5. Students must remain seated until the dismissal bell rings.
Consequences
Each infraction will result in an appropriate consequence ranging from student teacher
Conference, parent phone calls, and referrals to the appropriate administrator.
Quality of work
Students are expected to follow guidelines when completing assignments for class; failure to complete the work in the assigned format will result in a major deduction in points.
If a student has missed two or more days in the student news cycle, the student is expected to make up the days by watching any news broadcast, outlining no less than four major stories with three supporting facts for each.
3. All assignments are due on or before the assigned due date, NO LATE WORK WILL BE ACCEPTED. If you are absent on the due date due to illness than the work is due upon the students return to class. Prearranged absences such as field trips, sporting events and trips require that the work be turned in before the absence. Students are encouraged to check the web site often or assignments and due dates as well as senior class information.
COMPUTER RULES
1. You are responsible for the computer you are assigned to. Unauthorized changes will result in a zero for the day and possible removal from the computers completely.
2. Unauthorized use of the computers will result in a zero for the day and possible removal from the computers completely.
3. Going to unauthorized sites on the computer will result in a zero for the day and possible removal from the computers completely.
