BASIC CLASSROOM POLICIES
Every opportunity will be taken to create and provide a positive atmosphere for all students. I believe all students can behave appropriately and I expect no less. I intend to provide the very best education to all students, however I do require each student’s effort and cooperation.
Rules:
1. Be on time. 2. Be on task. 3. Be respectful to everyone. 4. Be prepared for class.
5. No food, drinks, or gum in the lab.
My expectations also include following all GHS policies as stated in the GHS Student Handbook. If a student chooses to break a rule, appropriate actions will be taken. These actions are:
1. Verbal Warning 2. A call to the parents. 3. Referral to assistant principal.
