  8. Classroom Philosophy My 3 Classroom Rules: Respect Others Take Care of Yourself Be Excellent

  9. Cavalier Rewards • Whenever a student is being respectful, working productively, completing assignments, or making good choices he/she earns a ticket that will be collected in a raffle box. At the end of each week, there will be a raffle in class where the students who have tickets in the box can win various small or large prizes. Obviously the more tickets accumulated, the higher the chances of winning!

  10. The C-A-V-S System • When students are unable to make good choices however, there will be consequences. • Each student will start out with a 100% behavior grade. If a student chooses not to follow one of our classroom rules, the protocol will be as follows: C- Verbal warning. Student behavior grade lowered by 2% and recorded in the agenda. A - Student behavior grade lowered by 3% and recorded in the agenda. V - Student behavior grade lowered by 5% and they receive a “Make Better Choices” slip. S - Office referral. Behavior grade will be automatically lowered to 60%. Students must stay above a 90% to get an A in Behavior.

  11. Homework Policy and Expectations • Homework is due in the morning when school starts. If homework is brought in later in the day is counts as incomplete and the student receives a homework demerit. • Homework demerits are to be signed by BOTH the student and a parent, • Homework needs to be: • Neat • Complete • Have the student’s NAME, the DATE, and UNIVERSITY written on top.
