Dismissal
•The teacher dismisses you, not the clock.
Leaving early, or lining up inside or the classroom before dismissal is unacceptable.
•Wait until the teacher finishes and officially dismisses you with:
“Ok, I’ll see you tomorrow- Have a nice day.”
•Pick up all of your belongings and put all trash in the proper place (i.e. not the floor)
