Student responsibility

     Students should take responsibility to come to class every day ready to learn.  Binders, paper, and writing tools are the students responsibility.  Missed work is also the responsibility of the student - see me for make-up work if you have missed a day of class.  Deadlines are given for a reason.  Missed deadlines will result in grade deductions.  See Tide Guide for missed work policies.

Classroom Rules

     The classroom rules are simple - 1. Respect yourself.  2. Respect others.  Everything falls under those two statements.  I pride my classroom as being a safe place to learn and express ideas.  No one will be critisized for having an appropriate response to what is happening
