- Assignments will be completed in blue or black ink following
the format proposed by the English department. Any assignment which is not completed
in ink will not be accepted until it meets this guideline.
- In order to complete assignments missed due to an absence,
the student must verify their legal absence with a pass from the attendance office
within two (2) days.
- Journals or notes of reading assignments are to be maintained
by each student. Students are also expected to compile class notes to help them in
preparation for tests and quizzes. It is recommended that each student use a three-ring
binder to organize all their materials.
- All students are expected to complete and turn-in their
own work. If a student fails to maintain academic integrity by cheating then measures
will be taken to help the student develop improved character traits. After the first
offense, the student(s) involved will receive no credit for that assignment. Any
subsequent offenses will entail a student-parent-teacher conference to remedy the
deficiency.
- All students' work will be kept on file in the classroom
until the end of the marking period. Students may have access to their files at any
time for review or reference.
- Student may access their grades at anytime at www.eclassinfo.com.
- Students are expected to follow current events by watching
the daily newscasts, reading newspapers and news magazines. Class discussions will
be used to evaluate one's knowledge of current events.
- Daily attendance is expected of each student. A direct
correlation of attendance with achievement exists on the high school level. Interacting
with the teacher and other students is an invaluable tool for education.
