Mr. Abaroa - THE RULES!

Follow These Rules:

Follow directions the first time they are given. It will save time and effort to complete what is asked when it is asked.
Do not speak or leave your seat without permission. Speaking out of turn is NEVER permitted. This hinders the learning environment of others. For safety and accountability, learning takes place in your seat at your desk.
Leave all cell phones, unnecessary materials, and personal items in your backpack. We're avoiding all distractions! Phones must be turned off, or they will be confiscated for the remainder of the school day and given to the front office for a parent to pick up.
Use appropriate and professional communication at all times. Words and body language can often say more than what is on the surface. Our communication is for learning and building virtue.
