Class+Rules

__**Mrs. Buehring's Class Rules**__


 * ** 1. ** || ** Students are to be in dress code, enter the classroom calmly and quietly, and go immediately to their assigned seats. You are to sit at about a 90 degree angle to your desk with your feet on the floor and good posture (spine straight). ** ||
 * ** 2. ** || ** Students are to be in their seats and prepared to work when the bell rings ** . ** If you are not in your seat with your materials when the bell rings, you are tardy and will receive a 10 minute detention. If the door is already shut after the tardy bell has rung, you will be swept. Be working on the assignment on the board as soon as the bell stops ringing. ** ||
 * ** 3. ** || ** Students are to show respect at all times and in all manners toward themselves, others, and staff. This includes all verbal //and// non-verbal forms of communication including body language, facial expression and tone of voice. ** ||
 * ** 4. ** || ** Students are to be on task AT ALL TIMES and work to the best of their ability. This means you are to be working on whatever assignment is given and constructively interacting with the day’s lesson with all of your concentration. If you are finished with an assignment early, you may quietly read or work on your interactive student notebook. There is no talking in my class except to address the academic issue at hand. ** ||
 * ** 5. ** || ** There is absolutely no gum, food, candy, make-up, mirrors, electronic devices or any other distraction allowed in my class without permission. Any of these visible will be immediately confiscated and picked up after school. Electronic devices that are out __without permission__ may be picked up from your assistant principal. Do not even give the appearance of chewing or it will be deemed that you are doing so. Only clear, plastic bottled water will be allowed on a daily basis. Class time is for learning. ** ||
 * ** 6. ** || ** Students are to be prepared with all papers, pens, pencils, notebooks and any other materials required for class. Never bother me about sharpening your pencil, needing paper or a pen, throwing out trash, or any other trivial matter during class. Class time is for learning. ** ||
 * ** 7. ** || ** You are to raise your hand to get permission to speak. Raising your hand does not give you permission to speak; it just lets me know you want to speak. You are never to leave your seat without first raising your hand and receiving permission. ** ||
 * ** 8. ** || ** If you run out of the two restroom coupons I provide at the beginning of the six-weeks and need to use the restroom you may do so but must make up the time for ten minutes after school. ** ||
 * ** 9. ** || ** I do not argue with students. If you are told to move your seat or given any other direction you are to do so immediately and without complaint. If you feel this or any other direction is unreasonable you may arrange to discuss it with your counselor or arrange a parent conference on your own time. Otherwise, follow all directions immediately and without complaining. Class time is for learning. ** ||
 * ** 10. ** || ** When the bell rings, you are to remain in your seat until dismissed. You are responsible for cleaning any trash in your area whether it is yours or not. Keep all trash with you until the bell rings and throw it out on your way out of the classroom. ** ||
 * ** 11. ** || ** I do not give warnings. This ****// is //**** your warning. Any violation of these rules will be met immediately with a 10 minute detention to be served immediately after school and/or other consequences such as copying the rules, parent conference, meeting with your AP or ISS. ** ||
 * ** 12. ** || ** If you do not come to the scheduled 10 minute detention that is to be held in my classroom after school, you will receive an office referral to go see your AP before you are allowed to re-enter my classroom. No matter what other consequence you receive, you will have to make up the 10 minute detention before re-entering class without being met with a discipline referral. ** ||
