Beliefs • I believe all students can achieve. • I believe in all students can learn. • I believe all students can perform if they set their minds to it. • I believe in giving students second chances as we are all human and sometimes deal with issues beyond our control.
Classroom Expectations The 5 P’s • Polite: Be respectful to self and others, swearing, talkback, bullying and profanity will not be allowed. • Prompt: Be in class on time, enter the classroom quietly and immediately go to your assigned seat.
