Additional
Administrative Procedures:
- ABSOLUTELY NO FOOD OR DRINK
IS ALLOWED AROUND ANY COMPUTERS.
This includes ‘just water’ under the table or in open
bags.
- You may bring water to class, but if you want to
drink it during class, it must be left on the center table, away from the
computers at all times. Placing any food or drinks on the floor is
not acceptable; put it completely away in your bag or on the center
tables in the center of the room (if there are not open laptops being used there).
- In the interest of safety, place backpacks, large
jackets, etc., on or under the tables, completely out of the
walkways. Alternately, you could put them on, under or around the tables at the center of the room.
- Each student should bring his/her Agenda book to
every class. Any student, who
must leave the classroom for any reason, must first have the teacher’s
permission, sign out using his/her own agenda book, and sign back
in. No Agenda, no pass. One student at a time may be out of the room.
- After an excused absence, it is the student’s
responsibility to arrange for make-up work. You are expected to
catch up within a week of returning, or make a longer term plan with Ms.
Pangman if you were out for a more extended absence.
