Syllabus

Evaluation

            Students will be graded on daily performance.  They can earn 10 points a day if they are on-task and type continuously throughout the class period.  Students can make up absences either before or after school.  Classroom attendance will be 1/3 of the total grade.  Assignments will be 2/3 of the final grade.  Tardies will cost 5 points a piece, so be on time!

All letters, memos, reports, tables, Excel documents, power points will be grade using:

Production Grade:

A= 0-1 mistakes
B=2-3 mistakes
C=4-5 mistakes
D= 6-7 mistakes
F=8+ mistakes

 Students will have 3 bathroom passes per semester, if they go unused, they are worth 10 points extra credit each (so you could use them to make up for an absence, for example.)

Make-up Work

            Make-up work will only be granted for excused absences.  It is the student’s responsibility to make arrangements for completing this work.  It may be necessary to schedule time before or after school to make up this time. 

 Classroom Rules

            Absent work is your responsibility

            Respect Others and Come Prepared

            Be seated when the bell rings (you may talk until signal is given)

            Maintain a positive attitude

            Ask Permission before leaving class I will dismiss the class when the bell rings

Discipline Policy
1st warning: Verbal

2nd warning: Sent to Office or after school detention

3rd warning: Sent to Office and Office referral. 

 

Tardy Policy

            Tardiness to a class interrupts the learning process for all in the class.  It is rude to the teacher and students who have taken the responsibility to be in class on time and learn what is being presented.  I believe that promptness and responsibility are important, for these traits generally carry over to the working world.  Therefore, tardiness will be dealt with by taking 5 points from your overall score.  If tardiness is considered habitual detentions and office referrals will be implemented to stop the behavior.
