  6. Class Rules • All students are expected to be ON TIME for class. On times means you must be in your seat before the bell rings. • Students are expected to come to class PREPARED. This means that each student must bring the following items to class everyday. • Textbook • Loose-leaf notebook (not a spiral notebook) • Pen or pencil (Blue or black ink ONLY)

  7. Class Rules • Students who are absent must see me on the day that he/she returns (Even if we don’t have class that day) to make arrangements for make-up. You are responsible for any missed assignments • If you are absent on the day of a test, you will be expected to make up the test the next class day. Special circumstances will be given special consideration

  8. Class Rules • Respect • Each other • Let everyone express their opinions • Respect each others’ right to express his/her opinion—even if you disagree. • Respect each others’ desire to learn. • Raise your hand to be recognized to speak and DO NOT TALK while someone is talking.

  9. Class Rules • Respect • The School Property • If I see you writing on the desk, you will come after school to clean all the desks in the science wing • My property • DO NOT TOUCH MY STUFF!!! (Read the poster)

  10. Class Rules • NO Food or Drink in the classroom (Only non flavored water) • No electronic devices • No hats, bandanas – head coverings

  11. Class Rules • Sit in your seat until dismissed • Do not pack until you are dismissed

  12. Class Rules • No passes to the phone • Lav or Nurse passes will be very limited (emergency only)

  13. Class Rules • Keep your head up and sit up. If you can’t, I will send you to the nurse

  14. Class Rules • Do not do any other assignments in class (I’ll shred them into a hundred pieces). • Do not pass notes in class (They make interesting wallpaper).

  15. Class Rules Use the lavatories BEFORE you come to class. Take care of personal business BEFORE Class

  16. Class Rules • Lab Courses: • 70% from Academics • Tests • Quizzes • Class work • Projects • Home work • 30 % from Laboratory Work

  17. Class Rules • Grading will be done on a cumulative point basis. Each assignment, quiz, etc. will be worth a certain number of points. At the end of each marking period these points are added up and your grade will be calculated on a percentage of the total. • For example, if the total number of points for the marking period is 500 and you have gotten 450 points, your grade would be 450/500 x 100 = 90. • Grades are based on tests, quizzes, labs, activities and homework.
