Classroom Policies & Procedures • Tardy Procedure • Absent Procedure • Computer Use Policy • Making Poor Choices • Planners and Pass Use • Academic Integrity Stephanie Green
Tardy Procedure • Students are expected to be in class and seated when the bell rings, otherwise they are considered tardy. • Phone calls will be automatically sent home for students who are tardy • If Tardy: • Enter the classroom quietly • Join in class activity without disruption Stephanie Green
Absent Procedure • Look at the weekly planner and find the day (s) you were absent • Write the assignment in your planner and collect any work from the copy bin that may go with it. • You have one day for every absence to finish the work. • After completing, return the work to the absent tray. Stephanie Green
Absent Procedure • If a student is absent on the day the assignment or project is due, the assignment is due the first day the student returns. If the student is absent on test day, he/she is responsible for taking the test the day that he/she returns. It is the student’s responsibility to see me about taking the test. • Not all work can be made up. Sometimes we watch videos in class, conduct lab investigations, hold class discussions and students are given credit for these activities. If a student misses class, they may not be able to make up the assignment. It is imperative for students to be in class every day. It is the responsibility of the student to collect all missed work. Stephanie Green
Computer Use Policy • Students will log in using their own username and password • Students will follow accepted use policy • Students will remain on task and be on appropriate websites at all times during computer use ***Student use of school computers, networks and Internet services is a privilege, not a right. Compliance with the school unit’s policies and rules concerning computer use is mandatory. Students who violate these policies and rules may have their computer privileges limited, suspended, or revoked. Such violations may also result in disciplinary action, referral to dean of students and/or legal action. Stephanie Green
Classroom Policies Making poor choices: • 1st time—Verbal Warning • 2nd time—Conference With Student • 3rd time—Time Out • 4th time—Parent Contact and Possible Removal From Classroom • 5th time---Parent / Student /Principal Conference Stephanie Green
Classroom Policies PASS USE: • You will need to fill out the pass portion of your planner in ink. Planners are mandatory. • Do not interrupt and ask to use the pass when I am talking to the class or if a student is presenting or addressing the class. • Abuse of pass use will result in limited use of the pass. Stephanie Green
Classroom Policies Academic Integrity • Cheating is not tolerated at ATA. Students who choose to cheat may expect a variety of consequences, including, but not limited to, loss of grade, suspension, or loss of privilege. Consequences will be at my discretion and will be discussed with the student, parent(s), and administrators. Stephanie Green
