  1. AP English Language & Composition Classroom policies and procedures

  2. Classroom expectations • Follow all Clark County School District policies. • Follow the dress code. • Adhere to the cell phone and electronic device policy. • Be on time for class and ready to learn. • Follow the classroom social contract. • Be polite. • Clean up after yourself.

  3. A note about language… • I expect my students to maintain civil discourse in my class. As such, I do not allow vulgarity (cussing) or negative remarks about race, gender, or sexual orientation in my classroom.

  4. Seating chart • There will be a seating chart in AP. • As of right now, the seating chart will be up to you. • If we have problems with talking, I will make a seating chart that best suits my needs.

  5. Start of class • We will have a Quick Write (QW) on the board. • The QW is a daily question that should be answered in one paragraph (5-7 sentences). • The QW is stamped in class. Stamped QWs are worth one point. Unstamped QWs are half a point. • QWs are turned in at the end of the week.

  6. Books and materials • The AP textbook is Everything’s An Argument. We will be checking them out from the library. You are expected to bring your book to class with you. • Independent reading books will be provided or may be checked out from the library. • You should have a binder or notebook for this class.

  7. Grading policy

  8. Grading policy • Quarter Grades will be determined by the following: • Tests/Quizzes20% • Classwork/Homework50% • Projects/Writing 30%

  9. Make-up work policy • Per CCSD policy, students who are absent have three days to request make-up work. • Upon receiving your make-up work, you have three days to complete it. • Tests and timed writings must be made up after school within one week of your absence. • See me before or after school about make-up work.

  10. Missing work policy • Because AP Language and Composition mirrors a college English class, I expect to receive your assignments when they are due. • Late class work or homework (i.e. work that you chose to not do and turn in on the day it was due) will only be accepted within 24 hours of the due date for a 20% reduction in grade. • Long-term projects will not be accepted late under any circumstances.

  11. Missing work policy • All late/missing work and make-up work should have the following information on it: Your name; the name of the assignment; the original due date; the date you turned it in; my initials. • Late/missing and make-up work should be turned in to the basket. • Late/missing work will be graded at my convenience.

  12. Graded assignments • Graded assignments will be in the basket for your class. Baskets are located on the bookshelves. • Please check your grades against grades in ParentLink. If I have made an error, bring your graded paper to me immediately so I can correct it.

  13. Extra credit • Extra credit opportunities are given to all students. I do not give extra credit to an individual just so you can raise your grade. • ALL missing work must be turned in before you do an extra credit assignment. • Participation in Varsity Quiz will earn you extra credit at the end of each semester.

  14. Electronic devices in class • Please do not play on your phone, text, or listen to music during class. Earbuds/headphones should be put away. • You may use your phone to take photos of information on the board, lesson plans, etc. • It would behoove you to have a dictionary app on your phone.

  15. Spiny Norman • AP has a class pet, Spiny Norman. • If you take Spiny Norman home for the weekend, you should write about his adventures in the book that travels with him. • Spiny Norman will go home with students on a random lottery basis, if more than one student requests him for the weekend.

  16. Contact information • E-mail: smrowe@interact.ccsd.net • Class website: my.CCSD.net/sylviarowe • Twitter: @English11Honors • Message: 702-799-4080 ext. 4000 • Available before school starting at 6:30 and after school on Monday and Wednesday-Friday.
