Personal Responsibility
You and you alone are responsible for your behavior. Do not blame someone else for your actions. When you demonstrate behavior that is not appropriate, I will ask that you account for your behavior and put that account in writing. In some instances you may be asked to leave class in result of your behavior and before you come back to class you will need to present me with a written account and explanation of your behavior and how it will change to allow you to remain in class.
You are responsible for your grade. I am here to teach you and assist you in your learning, but I will not complete work for you. I offer tutoring before school most mornings except Wednesday from 7:45 to 8:05 and other times as needed. I will remind of you assignments and due dates, but in the end it is you who must decide to do the work to your best ability and make sure that it gets turned in. If you need help please ask, I would love to help you understand material more.
