Expectations

Assignments - due at the beginning of hour. 50% point reduction for late work. No assignments will be accepted more that 1 week after due date.

Absences - You are responsible for getting missed work. 10 or more absences may result in loss of credit. If you miss the day of the test, you will need to make arrangements to take the test before or after school. If you miss the day before a test, you will still take the test when you return.

Note taking - Notes are taken on a semi-daily basis. It is your responsibility to take and keep your notes for the entire semester.

Books - Bring your book to class everyday unless told otherwise

Tardies - You are expected to be in your seat before the bell rings.
4 Tardies results in an office referral.


Final Exam - The final is required and is comprehensive. Everything you learn from the first day of class can be on the final exam. Stay organized, keep everything. Final is worth 15% of your overall grade.

Bathroom or Other Passes

I do not have a problem giving you a bathroom class as long as it does not interrupt me or disrupt the class. Choose an APPROPRIATE time to ask for a pass. The beginning of class (before the bell rings) is often a hectic time, please just use the bathroom on your way in rather than ask for a pass when you get here.
