Lateness, Class Participation, Cell Phone Policies
Regular attendance is crucial for success. If you are absent you are still responsible for all material covered in class and all assigned homework. Class materials and a calendar of homework assignments can be found on my website. Any student who misses 3 or more days must see me to arrange a schedule to make up work missed during the student's absence. Students must be in class in their seats and prepared to work when the bell rings. If a student is late to class they must have a pass.
NO CELL PHONES IN CLASS!!!
This is a laboratory classroom in which chemicals are used. There will be no eating, drinking or cell phone use during class or at lab stations.
Cell phone use interferes with learning opportunities therefore students will be asked to turn off their cell phones and tuck them into their bags upon entering my classroom. Texting, snap-chatting, video recording or any other inappropriate use of a phone during class will lead to a phone call home or appropriate consequences as outlined by school policy.
