SLAM Student Expectations

Quiet Outside of class!. When you are outside working you need to be quiet, respectful, and not acting a fool. SLAM students get a lot of privileges at this school because they know how to act and they need to work outside. Don't ruin it for everyone.

Quiet in the SLAM Halls! There are other classes learning. Do not peek into windows and do not randomly go in and out of Mrs. Farley's class. Be respectful of all class times and check before you barge in.

No games, no shopping, no Facebook. You are here to learn. You will be in front of the computer often, but you are not to play any games, shop, or do other social media unless you are posting about your work.

Food and drinks at tables only. Nothing near computers! No gum, no seeds, no drinks, no candy, nothing. Ants come and litterbugs leave wrappers all over.

No put downs or rudeness. SLAM classes are happy, comfortable, and relaxed places for everyone. If you need to spread negativity you will be dealt with according to the SLUSD discipline policy. If you don't feel happy and welcome here, let me know and I'll fix it.

Tardiness is a bad idea. Most of the teaching and what you are going to do in this class comes in the first 5 to 10 minutes of class. Announcements come at the beginning of class. If you miss any of this, you will be lost and not know what to do or what's happening. I'll still help you, but I have other students to help and they were here on time.

Keep your computer and area clean. I always have paper and spray to clean your area and computer. Use it! We will clean the computers and tables once a week as a class. Clean your area well and keep your wires arranged, not tied in knots.

Headphones on for music.

Yes, you may listen to music while working, but I don't want to hear it. Keep your headphones on your ears, not on your neck or the top of your head while the music is blasting. I shouldn't hear it and your neighbor shouldn't be annoyed by it either. And don't spend 10 minutes setting up your playlist before getting to work.
