English 10 Policy

 

        Our goal is to encourage our students to read and respond to a variety of literature. They will discuss, think and write about the ideas they are exposed to in the literature they read. They will continue to develop their writing skills by writing in many formats and exploring ways to communicate their thoughts and ideas. Student involvement is essential toward meeting these goals. Ultimately, our hope is to create lifelong learners who will enjoy reading for pleasure, knowledge and be able to communicate their knowledge through written and verbal means.

Classroom Rules

     Students are expected to:

  1. Be prepared for class

  2. If absent, it is the student's responsibility to find out what work was missed.

  3. The old saying "Respect has to be earned" is wrong. Respect should be automatic. We will be polite and respect others at all times.

  4. It is important to be on time for class. Repeated lates will result in detention, referral, and a phone call home.

  5. Each illegal absence will result in a phone call home.

  6. Absence from an assigned detention will result in two detentions and a phone call home.

  7. Further absence from a detention will result in a referral.

  8. Any work missed or assignments not handed in because of an illegal absence will count as a zero.
