Classroom Conduct:As a classroom community, all members are expected to be respectful of each other. This includes respecting classroom materials, other students’ possessions and using appropriate language at all times. Derogatory or offense language will not be tolerated. Please see: "Student Handbook"
Homework Policy:
Homework is expected to be turned in on the day it is due, during that class period. (HW is 10%)
Assignments turned in on the day they are due will result in full credit (if done with adequate effort). Any assignments handed in after the class period or the following day will result in a 25% deduction. Homework that is turned in more than two days late will result in minimal points.
Absent Policy:
If you are absent, it is your responsibility to acquire and make up missed homework, classwork and/or quizzes and tests. Be sure to check the “Absent” folder for any missed work to make up. You may come see me before or after school with any questions regarding missed work and/or to set up a time to complete any missed quizzes/tests.
For all makeup work, please write “Absent” on the top of homework assignments and leave them in the homework box for your class. Note: if you do not write “Absent” on makeup work then it may be marked late.
Cell Phones/Technology:
Cell phones are great! I have one too believe it or not… However, they are a distraction to learning, and should be turned off/silenced and kept in lockers during the school day. If cell phones are seen during class then they will be taken for the remaining class period. If I take your phone a second time, it will be kept until the end of the school day. No exceptions!
If cell phones are out during quizzes, tests or any type of assessment, it will be assumed that the student is cheating and will receive a failing grade for that assessment. So please keep them away!!
Plagiarism:
It is expected that all students will complete their own work, in their own words. It is commonly believed that plagiarism is only copying and pasting information from the internet, but it includes all of the following:
· Copying another student’s work (homework, manuscript, papers)
· Taking information from the internet or another source without citing it
· Taking credit for anyone else’s work
Food/Drink:
No food is permitted in the music room unless otherwise specified.
