Recuperation

You will be allowed to recuperate a test or quiz ONLY under the following conditions:

1. You have taken notes and paid attention in class for all lessons prior to the test.

2. You have completed all homework assigned prior to the test.

3. You have attended a reinforcement session to review the concepts you missed before recuperation.

Time Frame

After you receive a test grade, you will have one week to attend a reinforcement session offered on Mondays. After attending a reinforcement session, you can take the recuperation test. Recuperations will not be permitted if the student does not complete the process within one week of receiving the original test grade.

Homework cannot be recuperated.

Cell Phones

If you are caught with your cell phone, it will be taken from you and given to the office.

Spanish / English

Although I am your math teacher, part of my job is to help you improve your English skills. In order to do so, we will speak only English in our classroom.

If a student is having trouble understanding a math concept, another student may raise their hand and ask me if they can explain it in Spanish. This is OK.

No food allowed in class either.

You may bring a water bottle to class.

Bathroom

You are old enough to know when you have to go to the bathroom – you don’t have to ask me.

However, you must take the bathroom pass with you and you cannot leave when I am teaching. It must be during independent working time.

If the bathroom pass is alreadytaken, you will have to waituntil it comes back.
