Memorization:  Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

Notes:
Mid-terms: January 17        End of second trimester: March 1
Last day for absent or failing make-up work: February 24
Take tests within three days of returning to school after absence.
Turn in all assignments on time. Late work is not accepted except to bring failing grades (below 60%) up to passing or 50% credit for writing assignments.
Turn in absence make-up work within three days of returning to school. Cover sheets must accompany make-up work for absences.
Read every day from books you have chosen to read outside of class.
Personal Reading requirement = 100 minutes per week from reading of your choice or completion of Personal Reading Contract. In-class reading assignments (including Bible study or seminary) do not count as personal reading. Complete Personal Reading Record and turn in by Thursday or Friday of each week.
Self-start at the beginning of class. Be seated, quiet, and working as soon as the tardy bell finishes ringing. Bring materials (including a pencil) to class every day.
Keep your participation points. Do not be tardy, use the hall pass, or disrupt class. If you use all of your participation points, you may not use the hall pass, so take care of things like restroom, drink, telephone, or office appointment needs before or after school or between classes.
Throwing items in class is disruptive, can be dangerous, and will result in calls home.
