The following items are in place to help students with planning and organization of homework, assignments, and projects:
Classroom Assignment Board
Student Agenda
Website with updated Homework/Events Calendar
I understand that we are all human and thus we all make mistakes, but with the limited time available to us in class, it is especially important that students be prepared. If an assignment is not complete on the due date, the student will need to make a phone call home.
A student will receive a grade deduction of 10% for each day that an assignment is late.

Students are responsible for ensuring that all makeup work is obtained, completed, and turned in to the teacher in a timely manner. One day to make up work is given for each day the student is absent. It may be helpful to exchange phone numbers with other REACH students who can fill the student in on what they have missed as well as checking the homework/events calendar online.

Your Binder is Your Friend
Stay Organized |
|
An organized binder or pocket folder is vital to a student's making the most of this class. All handouts and work completed will be kept in the Humanities section of your binder or folder, including bell-work, notes, on-going project information, homework, activity packets, etc. Unless otherwise stated, all work should be done in pencil (no pens) and all coloring and illustrating should be completed with colored pencils (we'll discuss the exceptions to this rule as they come up).
This binder teaches organization and improves comprehension of the subject matter. Following directions, staying organized, and keeping up with daily routines will make your learning experience that much easier.

Classroom Discipline Plan |
|
 |
| Remember the Golden Rule |
|
Classroom routines and expectations are discussed thoroughly at the beginning of the year and thereafter when needed. I believe in maintaining a positive classroom environment that fosters a safe, comfortable place to learn. Discipline has never been an issue in my classroom and I believe that is because I treat my students with a high degree of respect and expect them to treat others with that same level of respect. If a problem arises, I will speak with the student privately and ask that they think about their behavior. If this is a repeated offense the student will make a phone call home explaining what they have done and the teacher may schedule a parent/teacher/student conference. If the student commits a serious infraction, the student will be given a written referral and sent to the office immediately. |
