  8. Dress Code • Page 17-19 in agenda book/page 30-31 in DCSS high school policies and procedures handbook • Gentlemen you must have shirts tucked in and pants pulled up • Ladies-leggings are not considered pants. If your top is not long enough without the leggings then you are in violation of dress code. • Acceptable • Non Acceptable • IDs

  9. Electronic Devices • Cell phones • I pods • Cameras • Computers

  10. Substitute Teacher • There will be a transparency or slide with your assignment (s). • You are responsible for what is on the transparency-NOT THE SUB. • Busy work is not given- work will be taken up and graded and will appear on the next test. • You will be written up for classroom disturbance, insubordination and any other infraction if the sub leaves a note describing your inappropriate behavior.

  11. Make up work • Must show excuse within THREE DAYS. • Must make up work within in FIVE DAYS. • No make up work for unexcused absences. • Doctor’s note required after TEN absences. • Not excused- family vacations, emergencies, lack of transportation, babysitting, out of town. • The only accepted excuses (these are state mandates)- • Personal illness/some family illnesses(immediate) • Doctor’s and dental appointments • Court/military • Death in immediate family

  12. Make up work continued • All make up work is completed outside of class. • Tests must be made up in the mornings. • Rare exceptions I will allow tests to be made up in the afternoon. NEVER IN CLASS!

  13. Grading A- (90+) excellent work, attitude, attendance B- (80-89) above average work, great attitude, good attendance C- (74-79)average- you typically did not do anything extra, you do not complete work on a daily basis, you spend little or no time studying for a test. You may also have numerous absences (including ISS). D- (70-73)-below average F- (69-below)Failing-Usually lots of absences (5+) Never studies for a test. Never completes classwork. Never turns in projects on time. • Attitude and disrespect is not your interpretation, but the interpretation held by others. If you want to be treated with respect you must first give it and not argue with adults if they tell you that you are being disrespectful. Using good manners (please, thank you, yes/no ma’am, sir with the right tone) will serve you well. A students conduct themselves as A students. Always prepared. Always in seat when bell rings. Always attentive. Just because you want an A does not mean you have EARNED an A.

  14. Cheating • Passing off someone else’s work as your own. • Copying • Not keeping your eyes on your own paper. • Using unethical means to get a grade. • Says A LOT about your character. • Will get you a zero if caught. • Will get you a zero if you gave someone else your work to copy. • Will land you in ISS.

  15. Attendance Incentive • For every week you are not absent nor tardy-excused or unexcused, you will receive ¼ of a point added to your final average. • Perfect would mean 4.25-4.5 points could be added to your final average. • Because of this, I do not round up averages. • Only exception would be a student who has a perfect attendance record and would need less than ½ point to meet the next letter grade. • Excused tardies from other teachers and the office (including guidance) count against you for incentive purposes. The only tardies that are the exception-late bus. • ISS, OSS, all absences and being called to the main office for disciplinary reasons count against you. • Field trips do not count against incentives.

  16. End of period procedures • Make sure your work in turned in. • Clean up area. • Stay in seat until bell rings. I dismiss you not the bell. • If you need to check out a book, you sign the card in the front of the book and give the card to me.

  17. Other Behavior Expectations • No food. • No drink. • Keep a notebook- at least once in the semester I will allow you to use your notebook on a test of my choosing. Also your final exam (in May)is comprehensive. • No grooming-It is just rude to do that in public!

  18. Other behavior expectations • This is my classroom. • You will respect my rules and abide by them. • You will respect others. • I do not care what another teacher allows you to do-THIS IS MY CLASSROOM. • If you cannot abide by my rules –have your parents contact Mrs. Stinchcomb or your counselor to request a change.
