Classroom Management Plan
Students are expected to understand the following expectations:
As a student, I will respect my teachers and peers by being considerate and appreciative of the differences in character, background, learning styles, and perception. I will act with integrity and responsibility.
I will respect the class because it is important that we take care of the class and its contents so that we can be rewarded for our efforts.
I will be prepared for class each day in order to promote a safe and fun classroom in which we can all learn comfortably.
If students do not conform to these expectations, the following consequences will be issued:
1. Student - teacher conference and classroom detention (20 minutes)
2. Parent - teacher conference and classroom detention (20 minutes)
3. Student, parent, and teacher conference and classroom detention (20 minutes)
4. Student will have no possibility to earn class rewards for the school year and an office referral.
*Classroom detention includes extra-work assignments and/or classroom clean up.
