Dear Parent(s):

I will be your child’s MATH teacher this year. In order to guarantee your child and all students in our classroom the excellent educational climate they deserve, I have developed a Classroom disciplined Plan that will be in effect at all times. Please take a few moments to read and discuss it with your child. Your signature below will acknowledge your awareness and support of the class rules.
Regular school attendance is essential for the student to make the most of his/her education.
Please be aware of two very important rules:
1. A student absent from school for any reason, upon returning school, must bring a note signed by the parent that describes the reason for absence. An absence slip will be required to return to class.
2. The student has to make up work missed due to any absence within two school days.

Discipline Plan and Classroom Rules for Room 40

1. BE ON TIME EVERY DAY
2. No eating, drinking or chewing gum in class!
3. No personal grooming during class time.
4. Follow classroom procedures and routines for room 40.
5. Be in your assigned seat and be ready to work when the tardy bell rings.
6. Follow directions the first time they are given.
7. I will not allow the student to do anything that will interfere with the student success in this class. Nor will I allow the student to do anything that will interfere with someone else who is trying to learn.

Consequences If the student chooses to break a Rule

First Time: Verbal Warning and keep a record with the student’s name and the rule broken.
Second Time: Teacher/Student Conference, Counselor/Student Conference or Detention.
Third Time: One or a combination of: Team/Student, Student/Parent Conference (Parents and
Students will be requested to write the action plan needed to solve the problem).
Fourth Time: Student/Principal Conference/Referral
Severe disruptions: The student will be sent immediately to the office.
