Mr. Hall’s Social Studies Class Procedures Sheet 2010-11
Late Work Procedure: Late work will be accepted with the understanding that each day it is late the student will lose credit. Students with excused absences will have their work accepted late for full credit as long as it is turned in after a reasonable amount of time after they miss. Students must put their make-up work in the trays provided. It is each student’s responsibility to get their assignments for days that they are absent.
Make-up Exam Procedure: Make-up tests will not be given during class unless absolutely necessary. There will be designated times for students to make up tests. Changes to this policy may occur with grade and/or school review.
Absence Procedure: Students need to check the agenda board and write it down for the day they are absent. They must also check the bellwork file folder to obtain the bellwork to make up for that day if they had one. Students need to see the teacher at the appropriate time to get handouts for the day(s) they missed.
Homework Procedure: Homework will be given in this class. The late work rule does apply to homework. Students should expect between one and two nights of homework per week. Changes to this policy may occur with grade and/or school review.
Extra Credit Procedure: Students will be given opportunities in the form of extra readings, projects, or assignments in which they can earn extra credit. The amount of available extra credit may differ during each grading period.
Phone Procedure: Students will not be permitted to use the phone unless there is any emergency. This must be cleared by me and or the administration, including the reason for calling. This must be done at the beginning or end of class.
Locker Procedure: Students will not be permitted to go to their lockers during class without disciplinary actions. Students are expected to bring class materials when they come to class.
Substitute Procedure: If a student’s name is left from the substitute, then the student will serve a day of detention and be written up.
AR Book Procedure: Students will be required to read one AR book every grading period. They are allowed to read one sports related book during the school year.
All procedures listed above apply to all classes, including orientation. The only procedure that will not apply is the homework procedure.
