a detention• 1 – 15 minutes late – detention will be assigned• Over 15 minutes – referral will be submitted
• Work missed due to unexcused lateness or cutting class is an automatic zero and cannot be made up

• Grading – see syllabus• Absences – It is YOUR responsibility to make up missed
assignments in a timely fashion– Tests, Quizzes and Class work can be made up,
Labs cannot. All work must be made up outside of class time.

Fire Drills!• During a fire drill– All students calmly exit the classroom, turn left and
go down Stairwell 3 to the FIRST FLOOR– Continue ACROSS the bridge and exit out of the
FORUM doors. – Once outside locate the area for Classroom 235– ALL students MUST REPORT to the teacher
immediately– When the drill is over you are to report back to
class, NO WANDERING!– Failure to comply will result in a discipline referral
