Classroom Expectations:

1. Attendance- All students are expected to attend class daily with proper supplies.

2. Tardies- AHS/District policies will be enforced.

3. Behavior- Students are expected to follow ALL school rules, along with respect toward their peers. This class is divided into two sections: Lecture and Lab. Proper behavior is expected in both areas. Violation of Lab Rules and Safety Contracts will result a disciplinary referral and will be handled accordingly. This may also result in removal from future lab activities, which may directly affect your grade.

4. Participation- Students are expected to participate in all class and lab activities. As a reminder, this class contains a full year Cat Dissection, which is used as a comparative to human systems.

Supplies:

You cannot be successful in any class if you are not prepared! You are responsible for your materials. Organization is the key for many to stay on task. A calendar/planner is suggested and recommended to write the assignments for the upcoming week, paper, and pen/pencil are daily used supplies. Map pencils, markers, rulers, and glue sticks are items, which will be used at various times throughout the year.

An additional supply list will be provided at a later date. This list will include items required for your yearlong dissection lab.

Re-testing Policy:

Requirements for retesting:

- Retest must be taken within 1 week, after the original test was returned.

- The higher of the two grades will be taken, not to exceed over a 75.

- Retests will be completed either before or after school, per individual arrangements.

Late Work Policy:

All work is due on the assigned date at the beginning of the class period, even if you are in ISS. Late work will not be accepted and the student will receive a zero.

Getting Help:

Tutorials are available to anyone who needs help. Morning tutorials times for Coach Reyna’s classes are Monday, Thursday, and Friday at 7:00 a.m. A morning pass has been issued for the school year. There are no set tutorial days in the afternoon. Please contact Coach Reyna to make arrangements for after school tutorials. Help is always available, but communication is the key!

Absences and Make-Up Work:

It is your responsibility to find out what you have missed when absent. When you are absent from class, you will have the same number of days to make up the work.

If you are absent on a known test day, you will be expected to take the test on the day which you return. If you have been absent prior to a test and no new material has been covered, you will be expected to take the test at the regularly scheduled time. Please note: tests will be announced well in advance, to ensure each student will have plenty of time to prepare.
