• Take care of this campus– its your home away from home!
Be dressed for success!• School is where you are working
towards your future– dress appropriately! – No flip- flops– 4 finger rule for tank tops– No short shorts– If your pants won’t stay near your
waist– WEAR A BELT (or we’ll get you some zip ties! )
– When in doubt– cover it up!
Be your best!• Don’t wait until you need your
reputation to start thinking about building a good one!
• You will never get the RIGHT results by doing the WRONG thing!

tells you to do so. • No horseplay or roughhousing.• No food, gum, candy or drinks

Academic Integrity (Honesty in Learning
Policy): • Students are expected to maintain
academic integrity. There should never be any plagiarism, cheating, or any other type of academic dishonesty. All potential cases of academic dishonesty will be settled by notifying administrators, notifying the parents of all students involved, and the student(s) will be given a zero for the assignment. There are NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

Classroom Courtesy• Above all, I expect the behavior in
the classroom to be exceptional. There should never be any interfering with my initiative to teach. When you respect yourself and are committed to the learning experience, our classroom will function efficiently and pleasantly
