Cell Phones

Need to remain on silent or off during class time.Texting or having your phone out during class is not allowed.
Consequences could result in confiscation of the phone until the end of that school day. Defiance in the no phone policy may result in a behavioral referral. Having a phone in your possession during a test is not allowed.

Electronic Music Devices

Need to put away upon entering the classroom. Use may depend on abuse. I usually allow you to listen to your music AFTER the chapter test & on some Fridays after the lesson. If your music device is allowed, you must always have on headphones & the volume must be at a level that is not heard by anyone around you. You must always be able to hear your team member and me.

Academic Dishonesty

Academic integrity is essential to your academic success. Dishonesty on homework, quizzes, and /or exams will result in a score of a zero and disciplinary action.
