  4. respect Dictionary.com: Esteem foror a sense of the worth orexcellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability. Example: I have great respect for herjudgment. Urban Dictionary.com: Respect means valuing each others’ points of views. It means being open to being wrong. It means accepting people as they are. It means not dumping on someone because you're having a bad day. It means being polite and kind always, because being kind to people is not negotiable. It means not dissing people because they're different from you. It means not gossiping about people or spreading lies.

  5. Respect is the rule • Respect the Teacher. Follow directions the first time.   • Respect Others. Keep language and actions polite, encouraging and school-appropriate. Keep hands, feet and objects to yourself. • Respect the Content. Be on task and engaged during learning and work times. • Respect the Learning Materials.

Gum goes in the trash, not under tables. • The teacher’s desk and computer area are off-limits. • When you borrow a pencil, return it! • If you break something that is mine, you will replace it (preferably with a better one!) 
