Expectations

Expectations

At Wagga Wagga High we expect certain things of all our students. All students have rights, but you also have responsibilities – to yourself, your classmates, your teachers and your school. If you make the right choices about your behaviour and your work, the results for you will be positive. If you make poor choices, you will suffer the consequences. To help you make the right choices, we have a code of conduct and a set of classroom rules.

Read these carefully and think about how you will behave when you get to high school.
