Behavior

    The courses I teach are college preparatory.  They will be based on mutual respect.  I will conduct class in such a way that will prepare you for college.  There are a few basic behavioral policies that must be followed.  You must be on time to class, which means in your seat by the time class starts.  Please bring all necessary items to class everyday.  You will need loose leaf notebook paper for all of you assignments.  There is never an excuse for rudeness.  If and when you have a substitute, you are expected to follow all class/school policies and be on your best behavior.
