  I.                    Class Procedure:·         Students who are absent are responsible for turning in their make-up to the teacher, and picking up their missed assignments.·         Upon the start of the class, students should be seated in their seat.·         We will try to maximize our instructional time, therefore once you are in the classroom there will be no leaving. GCHS has given each student a hall pass, these may be used at the teachers discretion, and once they are gone there will be no more given.

·         Students are responsible for bringing their own material to class. Pencil and paper will be needed everyday. Students will be able to leave a personal three ring binder or notebook in the classroom if they want.
