For part of the class, we will use the online Learning Management System – Blackboard Because classroom equipment is necessary for the completion of class assignments, and some students do not have a home computer with Internet connection, homework is not required.

However, those of you with computer & Internet access may want to complete your quizzes or other Blackboard assignments at home.

 

Attendance Arriving late to work is the number one complaint of employers today,

second is poor attendance

Tulsa Tech is preparing you for work, so we emphasize the importance of being in class and ready to work each day

Excessive absences and tardiness will result in a Student Referral for high school students: 3 absences – student/teacher conference parents notified

5 absences, counselor/parent discussion 9 absences – academic probation until attendance is improved

If you are tardy for any reason, you must get a tardy slip Early dismissal slips must be shown to your instructor before you

leave campus

High School Students - Home school activities do not count against your attendance. You must fill-out & turn in a High School Activity Form

 

Cell Phones Once the bell rings for the beginning of class,

please put away all cell phones, out of sight, and turn them to silent
