Classroom Procedures and

Expectations2015-2016

Why Do We Have Procedures?

How to Enter the Classroom

•Calmly enter the room and take your seat.

•Immediately start the bell ringer. If you are not in your assigned desk before the bell rings, you are TARDY!

•Do not enter if the door is closed or if there is not a teacher present.

Starting Class

What to Do With Your Belongings

•All of your belongings should be placed on the shelf under your chair or under the table.

•Make sure nothing is in the aisles.

•For safety reasons, please DO NOT lean back in your chair, pick up the desk above your head, OR stand on a desk!

If You Are Absent

If You Are Tardy• Students will not be allowed into any class

without a tardy pass. The teacher will have the door locked even if it is right after the bell rings.

• If you are tardy, you must get a pass and you will then be allowed into class with the pass.

• Your tardy records will be kept by the school system. As soon as you have a tardy, the system will automatically contact the parent/guardian to inform them of the tardy.

• There will be consequences for tardiness that will be handled by the disciplinary specialist and the attendance committee

Turning in Papers

•Homework needs to be handed in when it is due - NOT late - and NOT early!

•Pass all papers to the front row.

•People at the end should passthe entire row down.
