classmates, respect your teachers, and respect property that doesn’t belong to you. We are ALL responsible for our own behavior and need to conduct ourselves accordingly, as young adults.
*ALL policies in the Student Handbook apply, be aware of them! Not reading them does not mean you
do not need to follow them. Be aware of all policies in the handbook!
*Come to class prepared with the materials needed for each day.
*Be seated by the time the bell rings, or you may counted tardy. Be aware of the school tardy policy and the importance of being to class on time.
*NO ONE in the kitchen unless instructed otherwise.
* It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to make up missed work. If you are gone, SEE ME.
*DO NOT expect to go to your locker, the restroom, the office, etc. during class. Bring what you need with you to class and take care of other business on your time.
*No food or drink, with the exception of clear water in clear containers.
*No backpacks, bags, purses, or coats permitted in the classroom.
*You need to put your garbage in the waste paper basket.
*Absolutely NO cell phones, they will be taken and given to Mr. Wall. Be aware of the policy.
