1)  All students are expected to be in their seats when the bell rings ready to work.  If student is late, "WP Exercise" points for the day will not be earned.
2)  All students must keep a class binder.  It must be neat and up to date.  All work completed in the class will be put in the folder. Assignments from other classes cannot be in the folder.
3) Late work will be accepted due to excused absences.  Students have 2 days to get an absence cleared through the office or work cannot be made up.  Each student will also be given 2 "Late Homework" passes each semester.  These can be used in such cases as forgetting to bring an assignment or a printer running out of ink. The late assignment must be completed BEFORE the corrected papers are handed back to the rest of the class.  These cannot be used on major projects or the book report.
4)  Each student is expected to bring paper, a pen, highlighter, their class folder and their outside book each day. 
5)  Students are expected to respect the opinions, thoughts and property of other students, the teacher and the school.
6)  All policies established by the administration will be followed (cell phones, Ipods, dress code, tardy policy, etc...).
7)  All formal essays must be typed.  Handwritten essays will not be graded.
8)  All tests and quizzes must be made up within one week of the date they are given before school,  during lunch or after school.

9)  Restroom use:  You do not have to ask to use the restroom.  If you have to go, quietly get up, grab the pass and go.  Don't abuse this policy.

10)  Plagiarism will not be accepted.  If you are caught plagiarizing any assignment, you will receive an "F" and will get no points or credit.  For example, if you plagiarize your book report, you will NOT receive 400 points and you will not get credit for any pages read towards your outside reading requirement.
