My Class of Excellence- Are you in?
Come with your Writer's Notebook, your Planner, a pencil and dressed in school dress code.
Regardless of what goes on in the building, we do not eat, chew gum, or use lotion, combs, brushes, fragrances or lip products in this classroom of excellence. That is what lavatories and locker times are for.
Book bags, back packs, jackets and hoodies are not allowed in this classroom. Plan ahead.
When the bell rings in a class of excellence, students are ready to learn. They are not preparing at the last minute. Pencils are already sharpened, shirts are already tucked in, notebooks are ready.
Neatly store books and folders under your seats, keeping the aisles clear.
