Class Rules:
I only have two rules, don't annoy me and treat everyone in my class with respect. You have been in school long enough to know how to behave. There is no reason to list everything and treat you less than the young adult that you are. Follow the golden rule and treat everyone the way you want to be treated.
Absent Policy:
You are allowed a one day extension for each day you're absent. When returning from being absent, get any missed notes from a peer and check the website for any missed assignments. It is YOUR responsibility to get caught up if you're out.
Tutoring:
You may come in at lunch and day EXCEPT Day 1 and Day 5.
Electronic Policy:
Cell phones are not to be used without permission. You may charge your phone by using the back table, if your phone is set to airplane mode or turned off. If you use your cell phone without permission you will receive detention.
Food/Drinks in Class:
You may eat and/or drink in class as long as you completely clean up your mess.
Due Dates:
You will be given ample time to complete your assignments. If you need to turn work in late, there is no reason to panic. There is a 5 point penalty per SCHOOL day that you are late, but I will accept it up until there is no value left in the assignment. I will make exceptions on an as needed basis.
Grading:
25% of your grade is participation. Participation includes answering questions, being an ACTIVE member in our discussions, doing your classwork, and paying attention while I'm teaching. This is a weekly grade. You start with a 100%, and lose points for not being an active participant in class.
25% of your grade is your daily classwork and quizzes.
50% of your grade are projects and tests.
I always have extra credit opportunities, and I allow you to correct all mistakes made on any assignment and resubmit it for the points back. Extra credit and corrections are due by the last day of the marking period.
