  6. Policies • NO CELL PHONES! You have a laptop that can be used for all technology needs. • BEFORE you enter the classroom, place phone in your backpack. • If I see your phone out, I will take it up and keep it in a locked cabinet. You may pick it up at the end of the day. I will send your parent an email that you had your phone out without permission. • Do not ask if you can have your phone to listen to music while you work. The answer is NO.

  9. Grading • Grades are based on the accumulation of points. • Points are based on: • Daily/Homework/Quizzes – 60% • Tests/Labs/Projects – 40% • Grades are posted online • Our Grading Scale • 90-100% = A • 80-89% = B • 70-79% = C • Below 70% = F • Grades are calculated on cumulative percentage and are rounded up whenever possible.
