STUDENT EXPECTATIONS

Students are expected to:

Come to class prepared and ready to work each day--a folder, loose leaf paper, pencil andblue or black pen.

Make up all missed work within one week of the absence (including tests). This must be

arranged for after school. Students will not take a makeup test during class time.

Sign a network agreement to use the networked computers and internet for classroom

activities. Students will also use e-mail regularly in this course.Parents/Guardians must

also sign this agreement. This is essential for this class. If an agreement is not signed, the

student will be assigned library assignments instead of computer assignments for allinternet-related activities.

Turn in work when it is due. Many students tend to fall behind in this class, so be sure to

come in before or after school to finish assignments if it cannot be completed during

regular class time. Be responsible. Discuss with me if they feel they are falling behind or are having difficulty learning. I will

arrange after-school tutoring for those who need additional help or instruction.
