• At the end of the year, the local assessment End of Course Exam
(EOC) for chemistry counts for 10% of the total grade for the
student and credit for the course. Additional information/review
materials can be accessed for free at the website:

Behavior (General):
• Planner: The school planner is beneficial to the student on several levels.
The planner is a hallway pass, a bathroom pass, an organizational tool, etc.
Each student is required to bring their planner with them every day. The
planner will always be signed in ink by the student and the teacher.
• 10/10 Rule: During first ten minutes and last ten minutes of class all students
must remain in the classroom.
• Hand-raising prior to speaking in class is the accepted way to communicate to
the teacher.
• All housekeeping tasks (pencil-sharpening, requesting supplies, turning in
homework, etc.) should be done prior to the late bell.
• No vulgar language.
• Silence and listen when the teacher is teaching or giving instructions.
• Raise a writing utensil and have planner ready to be signed if you need to be
excused from class.
Late work slip: Before any late work is graded the late
work slip must correctly completed.
• First day late:
• Second day late:
• Third Day late:
• After Third Day:
-10% (Low A)
-20% (Low B)
-30% (Low C)

All assignments will be posted on the desk calendar and
at Edmodo.com.
Homework:
• All turned in work must be labeled with the student’s name and seat
number for credit. All work that is turned in without student’s name
and seat number will not be graded and will remain in the “No
Names” folder until claimed or the end of the 9 weeks (where it will
be trashed).

This free application/website is useful in providing online
assessments, a library to store worksheets for students to
print off (in case of loss or student absence), multimedia
resources (videos/interactive games/study guides) to aid
students on difficult topics, and a means to ask the
teacher questions outside of class.

This website will contain all the printed information on the
syllabus as well a course progression with available links to
help students improve their understanding on essential
concepts in chemistry.
Chemists in the field typically work together in teams to solve problems
or identify chemical abnormalities in the environment or synthesize a
chemical to aid in making our life easier, safer, or as medicine to save
lives.
Likewise, you will work together as a team to solve a problem in
various chemist fields. Each unit you will use tools you learn in
class to solve problems as each of these chemists.
Unit 1: Water Purification QA Chemist
Unit 2: Materials Chemistry
Unit 3: Petrochemical
Unit 4: Atmospheric Chemistry
Unit 5: Industrial Chemistry
Unit 6: Nuclear Chemistry
