addition to the rules and expectations outlined in the Student Handbook, I
expect you to:

kind. Do not make any remarks that make
fun of or offend or hurt another person.
This includes vulgar and indecent language as well as rude or “smart”
remarks. Bullying, intimidating, and
harassing behavior will not be tolerated.

co-operative. Food and/or drinks are not
allowed in class. Grooming or putting on
make-up or lip therapy or nail polish during class is forbidden.

considerate. Let other students work
uninterrupted. Be quiet (no talking)
during quizzes or tests. Show respect to
the teacher and other students as well as their belongings - do not move or use
anything that does not belong to you. No student is allowed to adjust the air
conditioner or the fans.

calm. Raise your hand to be called on –
do not talk unless given permission.
Take your turn while making comments or answering questions.

careful. Do not throw anything in this
class.

wise. Do not make me mad. Stay out of restricted areas such as the
photography studio areas and my office unless given permission.

adults. Be responsible for your
actions. Discuss mature material in a
mature manner.

neat. Hand in work which you are proud
to represent you. Complete and turn in
your work on time.

seat, quiet, and ready to learn when the bell rings, and remain in your seat
until dismissed or given permission to get out of your seat.
