Pre-AP Classes
Students in Pre-AP classes will work on an ad-
vanced curriculum and held to higher expectations.
BINDERS/Folders
A Language Arts binder or folder will be kept by all
students and must be organized and maintained.
My Educational Philosophy
I want my students to become critical thinkers who
question everything and take their time contem-
plating the answers to difficult queries. My goal is
to create an open and collaborative classroom en-
vironment of young adults who are able to think
for themselves, make mistakes, and challenge
themselves in learning. To help with your achieve-
ments, I am available before and after school and
during Prime Time. You can help by following P5:
Prompt, Prepared, Productive, Positive, and Polite.
Being POLITE covers everything, so make sure you
always are!
Late/Missing/Below 50 Work
An assignment is late if it is not turned in at the
start of the class in which it is due. For late work,
5% (10% PreAP) per day (max 30%) will be deduct-
ed and parents will be contacted for excessive late
work. Grades below 50 require intervention to ob-
tain a 70%.
