  15. Scheduled Check Out • Please let me know as you enter the classroom. • I will be at the door. • Quietly raise your hand to get my attention. • Pack your materials and leave at the scheduled time. • If it is an emergency, quickly get my attention and I will assist you.

  16. Cheating and Late work • * CHEATING/PLAGIARIZING: Cheating/copying is NOT tolerated in my class! There will be parent contact and a zero will be given for that assignment.  • * LATE WORK: I WILL ACCEPT LATE WORK, BUT IT WILL COST YOU! The HIGHEST grade you can make is a 70! Late work will not be accepted after the assignment has been graded and passed out. ALWAYS HAND IN ALLWORK! Zeros, incomplete work, and late work are the most common reasons for loss of credit

There is NO requirement that a student must be given a hall pass. Hall passes are a PRIVILEGE! • ELECTRONIC DEVICES: cell phones are not allowed. If electronic device is used for ANY REASON when not permitted, the device will be confiscated.
