Class Expectations

• All students are expected to be prepared for class and actively participate in lessons.  Students are expected to come to class with appropriate books.

• Students’ final grades are based on formal and informal assessments, such as homework, tests, quizzes, in class assignments, projects and class participation.  

• Homework is expected to be completed on time.  If your son/daughter has difficulty with the concept; he/she should approach us in the morning.  We expect to see his/her efforts to complete the assignment so we can determine the area of need.
