Together We Achieve More. • Always remember that there is a time for fun and a time for work. • Bullying will not be tolerated and will result in an immediate referral to the dean of discipline. • Bathroom use will be limited.

Make sure that you begin these immediately after you write your homework down as they will be timed.
