Classroom Expectations
Our classroom expectations focus on the idea of R.E.S.P.E.C.T. - In our classroom, we respect each other, ourselves, property, environment, collaboration, and thoughts. In the beginning of the year, our class spends time learning about and practicing these guiding principles. We refer back to them often throughout the year, and they help us build and maintain a strong classroom community.

R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Contracts will be filled out by students & signed by student & parent at the beginning of the year to establish expectations.
Behaviors that do not follow our rules of "R.E.S.P.E.C.T." will be handled in the following way:
Step 1: Time to take a break and reflect
Step 2: A fix it ticket signed by student & parent (fix it ticket example)
Step 3: An email/call home or parent meeting
