Classroom Rules:
Discipline / Behavior Policy: Two Rivers and District Dress Code, Phone and Device Policies, Behavioral Policies will be enforced. Success of the students, teacher, and the class will be great with a high level of self-discipline. When you discipline yourself, no one else has to. Every student has the right to be in an environment where they can learn and be successful, and can learn from mistakes without being embarrassed or humiliated. I have the right to teach and students have the right to learn. Respect - Respect - Respect?
Classroom Rules:
- Drinks with a screw-on lid are allowed.
- No food allowed in the classroom.
- Bonus Points will be awarded and lost at the discretion of the teacher. More than 4 absences may result in a loss of all bonus points. Inappropriate language and behavior may also result in a loss of bonus points.
