Classroom Rules Rules are non-negotiable • Come to class prepared. • Always do your very best. • Listen while others are speaking. • Respect each other’s opinions, space, and belongings. • Never ever lie…no matter what
Discipline Plan If a student breaks a classroom rule, the following consequences will occur: • Verbal reminder • Detention/ school service • Contact parents by telephone, parent conference or home visit • Student meets with teacher, parents, and principal or assistant principal * number 3 and 4 may be switched depending on the circumstance.

Homework and Classwork • You are expected to be an active learner.
Attendance • Come to school every day, and on time. • If you’re absent, bring a note. • You will need to get your work from me, or a responsible classmate.
Procedures • Line up outside until I let you in. • Enter quietly, and and take your belongings to the back of the room. • Leave your backpacks in the back and only bring necessary materials to your desk. • Once you are at your desk, remain standing until you are allowed to sit.
Lies, Drama, Bullying and Shoulder Shrugging • Saying I don’t know or shrugging of the shoulders is not an acceptable practice… DON’T DO IT! • Please never lie to us. We are here to help you. • No matter how bad a situation, it is only worse when you add a lie.
Talk about it I am not a mind reader, so if you are having a bad day… LET ME KNOW!
