Classroom Procedures:

Come prepared to class EVERYDAY! You must be ready to learn as soon as the bell rings!
Be sure to be in your assigned seat! Failure to do so will result in an absence.
If you are in the hall as the bell rings you will be marked tardy and you will not be allowed into the classroom.
All students will respect one another at all times as well as behave in a mature and appropriate manner. Misconduct will not be tolerated and an administrator will be notified, as well as parents or guardian.
Do not bring food or drink in the classroom.
No gum is allowed in the classroom.
No cell phones are allowed in the classroom. If a cell phone is visible it will be confiscated.
The class is ninety minutes long; during these ninety minutes learning will take place. I ask that you do not get ready to leave or actually get up from your seat until I dismiss you!
Science is all about asking questions. Never hesitate to ask a question! Chances are, someone else needs to know the answer as well.

Laptop Procedure:

Laptops are ONLY used when I permit them!
No HEADPHONES!!!

Attendance

You are expected to come to school everyday.
You are expected to make up all work if you are absent.
Unexcused absences will not be eligible to make up missing assignments. PERIOD! This is not negotiable!
Getting your late work or notes is your responsibility!!
