Welcome! In order to create the best learning environment possible, classroom expectations have been developed for our students and I ask that you and your child read through them carefully together. Then, parents please complete the student information sheet and sign the last page indicating that you and your child have read and understand these policies as well as the policies outlined in the school district Code of Conduct.

Communication: I believe that communication with parents is crucial to a child’s achievement. For the quickest response, the best way to contact us is via e-mail at [email protected] Also, questions and comments may be written in your child’s planner. Parents, please check your student’s planner and Home Access Center daily! 

Grades: Our grades will be weighted as follows: . Formative 45% . Summative 55%

Daily Supplies:

. 2 spiral notebooks . Something to write with (pencils) . wide rule notebook paper. . planner

Classroom Procedures and Work: At the start of the class period, students are expected to be seated at their desks quietly, with their required daily supplies, ready to begin bell work. Students should have all necessary materials and homework ready for class, including the planner, every day. The goal of this class is to meet the Texas Teks/Cscope Standards in Mathematics. We will do this through in-class warm-ups, worksheets, computer quizzes, creative/artistic projects, discussion, games, computer based activities and role-playing.

Homework:  Homework will be displayed on the back of the classroom board every day for the students to write down.
