Teacher: Mrs. Sandra McAuley
Email: smcauley@iss.k12.nc.us
Planning Period: 8:15-9:45
Welcome to our class!! Please review the expectations I have for you as well as other things you
will need to know as we begin our year together.
PLEASE refrain from talking while I am teaching
PLEASE be on time. You should be ready to work in your seat within one minute of the bell
ringing. This means you should be seated with a sharpened pencil, your assigned calculator, 3ring binder, paper, workbook, assignments, book and good attitude BEFORE the bell rings.
NO work will be accepted in ink-points will be deducted from your assignments. PENCIL
ONLY. Three tardies will result in an absence and any absences over three per nine weeks will
have to be made up.
Expect every day to be an important day. NO FREE DAYS!
Cheating and disruptive behavior will not be tolerated. They will be dealt with using
appropriate measures as noted in the Student Handbook. Integrity is an important value in this
class.
Homework is assigned, stamped and checked daily. NO LATE WORK IS ACCEPTED! Makeup work due to an absence should be completed within five days of the absence. THIS IS YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY!!! Your lowest homework can be dropped for the nine weeks if you help with
classroom supplies by bringing a bag of individually wrapped candy or a set of three square
boxes of Kleenex. YOU MAY ONLY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS ONCE EACH NINE WEEKS!
“Mini progress reports” are given frequently and students are constantly aware of their grade.
Your grade is comprised of several components..........
Homework............10%
Projects……………15%
Quizzes.................25%
Tests..................... 50%
YOUR GRADE ON THE Final Exam WILL COUNT as 25% OF YOUR FINAL GRADE FOR MY
CLASS!!!
