Classroom Expectations

Your behavior must allow your teacher to teach and you and your classmates to learn. The JPMS student handbook code of conduct and school rules are implemented in Language Arts class. Although I do not anticipate any behavior problems, there are consequences for broken rules.

Students are expected to be respectful, responsible, and safe.

Classroom rules include:

Follow directions quickly and the first time.
Keep hands, feet, and objects to yourself.
Raise your hand and be acknowledged before speaking.
Bring materials to class and be prepared.
When the teacher is speaking the students should not be speaking.
