Contents for All Classes
Grading Scale We will follow the total
points grading scale used by Calcasieu Parish School Board.
To see what your grade will be comprised of click on your class and
go to the grading scale section.
Attendance When absent, an excuse is to
be presented the day you return. It is your responsibility to
make-up work missed (board work, homework, test, project, etc.). You
may ask another student or me before or after - NOT DURING class. I
will not remind you of any missed assignments - THIS IS SOLELY YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY.
Make-up WorkAll assigned homework, quizzes, project, and exams will be posted and available to you at all times. Upon your return to class after and absence, check these lists to find out what assignments you missed, and make them up within one week of your return to class. THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! After one week of your return to class, all work not made up will be marked zero.
Graded Papers Each student will have a
graded papers folder that will be kept in the classroom. The folder will
contain all of your quizzes, projects, and exams for the current six
weeks. Each time a grade is returned, you will placed in the folder
and record the grade on your grade sheet. This section allows you to
keep track of your grade and therefore be aware of your current class
average at all times.
Classroom Management All backpacks and bags are
to be left at the front of the class room. Be seated and prepared to
begin a new lesson, complete a project, or to be quizzed on the previous
lesson when the tardy bell rings. Pencil sharpening should be done
before the tardy bell rings. I expect your complete attention while
I am addressing the class. Each student has the right to learn in an
atmosphere conducive to learning, therefore I will do whatever is
necessary to insure you that right. Students will be responsible for
their behavior at all times. Classroom and school rules must be
followed. If misbehavior does occur, students will be dismissed from
the classroom. Disrespectfulness to me or to another student will
not be tolerated.
Help I am available for tutoring
before, (except when I have duty or a faculty
meeting). Please don't hesitate to come by for this extra help.
Class Rules All students are subject to
the Code of Conduct printed in the SHS handbook. No food or drink
allowed in the classroom or lab by students at any time. When in the
lab the Computer Responsibility Rule will be followed. Serious
discipline problems will result in a trip to the office and a call placed
to your guardians.
Internet Release FormAll students must have an Internet release form signed by their legal guardian and it must be on file with the counselor’s office. Most of you have one that came to Sulphur High with you in your cum folder. Anyone not having one on file will have one week to produce a signed form after one week you will be sent to the counselor’s office for a schedule change. Calcasieu Parish School Board will not allow any student that does not have a signed form to sit in front of a computer with Internet access. If your guardian does not want you to have access to the Internet then a schedule change is a must since this course will deal with using the Internet for research (not Intro to BCA). Just a few reminders: The Internet will be used for educational purposes only. The use of the Internet is a privilege, not a
right. Inappropriate use such as
playing games during class, violation of copyright laws or other contracts will
result in the cancellation of that privilege.
Students are NOT allowed to download software from the Internet to the
computers without teacher permission. CPSB
filters its Internet access but this is not a foolproof system.
Students can still access inappropriate web sites.
All instances must be reported to the teacher.
Repeated occurrences will result in the cancellation of privileges.
Any student whose folder is found to be in possession of obscene,
illegal, or pornographic material will be sent to the office. Vandalizing
classroom equipment, computer hardware (mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc…),
software (programs being used), or the data of another user will result in a
trip to the office. Students are
not allowed to “look” at another student’s work unless the other student
is present. Invading the privacy of
another student will be met with strict disciplinary actions. All
students will be held responsible for their Code of Conduct while in the
computer lab and while on the Internet. Violation
of CPSB’s Acceptable Use Policy may result in In-School-Isolation or
Suspension of the student.
