Procedures & Policies

Absence: The school absence policy shall be implemented in the classroom. If you are absent and excused; it is your responsibility to ask & complete missed assignments in the designated time.

NOTE: If your absence is unexcused; you cannot make up any work (test; journal; etc.); which results in zero (0) points. Upon your 10th absence; you will lose credit in this class.

Late Work: A major part of academic success is completing ALL work. The purpose of completing homework is to give students practice and eventually; mastery. If students do not complete assignments deemed as critical by the teacher you will be assigned remediation time during lunch to complete missed work.

Leaving the classroom: In order to leave the class you must have a pass.
1) Ask the teacher in Spanish.
2) Be back within the time given. Bathroom passes will have a time limit of 3-4 minutes. If you take longer than the allotted time; you will be marked absent! This will also terminate your privilege to use the bathroom for the remainder of the semester. .

Electronic devices: We are in this class to learn! Therefore; unless you have spoken to me prior to the start of class (medical emergency; family issues; etc.) no electronic devices are allowed in class (cell phones; mp3 players; etc.). If you are found using these in class (texting; listening to music); your device will be confiscated.
