Students will follow school and district expectations in the classroom by learning and modeling good citizenship through interactions with the classroom teacher and peers. The following are non-negotiable classroom expectations: 

Respectful – towards peers & staff, school property, and other’s property:

• Make sure your phone and headphones are put away and phone is on silent when the bell rings
• Use appropriate language when speaking to peers and staff
• Respectful of other’s boundaries (their area, their personal items)
• We will not tolerate any hateful words or actions that degrade others
• Use all school materials for their intended use

On task – being actively involved in the learning process (acquiring new skills, knowledge, values, and attitudes)

• Actively listening/responding to teacher
• Following along with the class lesson
• Classroom discussions should revolve around the topic at hand as to not take away from your learning or the learning of others
• Participate - ask for help when you need it, and offer help when you can

Willing to give your best effort

• Come to class on time and be in your seat & working on your bell ringer when the bell rings
• Prepared for class with all materials (charged laptop, charger, your consumable textbook, writing utensil, and/or any work that was assigned)
• Following all policies and procedures of CMCSS (see student handbook for questions or clarifications) All school and CMCSS policies are also applicable to this classroom.
