2. Respect each other: Treat each other with kindness and dignity. Help each other.
3.Respect the classroom environment: 1. Arrive on time. 2. Raise your hand and wait to be acknowledged
instead of shouting out3. Be silent and attentive while others are speaking,
etc.4. Be on task during individual and partner
activities. These behaviors ensure a calm environment in which every student can learn. No one can learn in chaos.
Extra Help
I can give extra help after school during the tutorial period. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, there is a late bus. The late bus times and routes are posted on the HS website. I can stay on other days if students have transportation home. Students must make an appointment.
Or at lunch, before school or at another time–by appointment! Sign up on the extra help board.
