Discipline Policy

 

Recipe for Success

1. Respect other people’s feelings, ideas, differences, and property.

2.  Allow fellow students to learn and work without distractions.

3.  Be responsible in your work (be on task, turn in work on time, etc.).

4.  Be punctual and prepared (bring materials).

 

Tardy Policy

 

Students who are tardy more than three times a semester will be assigned to lunch detention or after school detention and a phone call will be placed to their parent or guardian. Students who are tardy more than five times a semester will be referred to an administrator.

 

Attendance-Truancies

 

If a student is deemed truant, he/she may not be permitted to make up missed assignments and/or graded activities for the time period of the truancy.  The student will receive a failing grade for assignments and/or graded activities.  At three truancies in a semester the student’s associate principal will be notified by the teacher.  Parents will be contacted and the student may be placed on a probationary contract.  Consequences of violating this contract may include: detention, Saturday School or in-school suspension.  Continued truancy may result in in-school suspension if all other methods to correct the problem fail.

 

Late Work

 

German: 

1.  Completed homework will be noted each day.  Corrections to the homework should be made in class during the discussion. 

2.  On Fridays (or, if the student prefers, daily) late homework will be collected and graded. Late homework receives a lower grade.

3.  Students have the opportunity to re-take chapter tests within a week.  In this case, grades will be adjusted, but not to 100%.

 

AP English Language & Composition / 11th Grade American Literature
