A.
IN CLASS: Always be prepared. You
are expected to operate in a safe manner.
Horseplay is prohibited. Stay in
your general work area, and do not linger around the classroom or in storage
areas.
B.
ABSOLUTELY no food or drink in class. Throw these
things away in the trashcan in the hall before you enter.
C.
CLEAN UP: You are
expected to clean-up after yourself after each class. This includes , tools,
and work area(s). This also includes any duties that you are assigned for the
week. This will be discussed in class.
D.
PASSES: My pass use
policy is as follows: To use a pass you
must: 1. Have a current passbook that is YOURS; 2. Have passes to use in
class (you only get three from me per semester); 3. Have a valid reason to use
a pass. I will not give passes to use
the phone, see another teacher, or go to your car. You will only use passes to
go to the restroom or to the nurse.
E.
RESPECT FOR OTHERS: Do
not touch other people’s work or materials.
Treat all classmates and peers as you would like to be treated. Taunting, teasing, and name calling will not
be tolerated.
F.
ABSENCES
AND MISSED WORK: SEE TARDY AND ATTENDANCE POLICY. An Unexcused Absence is one that
has not been verified by your parent.
If your guardian has done that, obviously the absence is excused. After 2 unexcused absences, credit for a
project that may have been started will be at the teacher’s discretion. After 3 or more, no credit will be given for
missed work. It does not matter if you
are passing or not. Many variables such
as future attendance, class behavior, or quantity of work completed will factor
in the ultimate grade decision for the teacher.
G.
DISMISSAL: You will be
dismissed as a class. When you are
finished with your clean up and duties, find a seat to let me know you are
finished, and I will dismiss you not the bell.
H.
All projects are to be
completed in class. Students may
enhance their project outside of class only with approval and instructions from
the teacher.
I.
LATE PROJECTS: 2 points per day, up to one week, will be
deducted for late studio work. Any
late work turned in after that point will receive half of the earned grade
