Cell phones should not be seen (ie) kept in bookbag with headphones extended out when listening to music. I see it I keep it
<!> In this class cell phones are NOT for: watching movies/shows/videos, texting, taking selfies, snapchats, social networking,
Pokemon Go, or making calls. This is your warning for these offenses. <!> I see it I keep it !!!

I do not like to be put in this position. Sometimes I can not , for some unknown reason to you, be 100% fair.
Do not be defiant
Consequences:
-
Warning
-
Conference
-
Call Home
-
Referral
Certain offenses like defiance, endangering/ threatening others, and or being disruptive can go straight to administration
I prefer settling problems with students like adults rather than taking issues to outside arbitrators like parents or administration
Grading:
Students will receive a grade on every project and sketchbook assignment. Each project will be evaluated in the following areas:
Following Directions, Growth/ Progress, Creativity, Craftsmanship, Effort, And Work Habits.
Students will be required to complete a written self-critique to be turned in with each completed project.
- Grades will be based on Rubrics- More to come
- Failure to do a project = 0
- Missing, Lost, or “stolen” project = 0
- Projects account for 70 % of student’s grade
Sketchbooks/ Notebooks:
- A “First Fifteen” sketchbook assignment will be given every day during the first fifteen minutes of class. Students will be expected to work on assignment independently. Sketchbooks will be graded at the end of every week and a single grade for the entire week will be given. Any missed sketchbooks must be made up . Sketchbooks account for 20 % of student’s grade.
