3. Be responsible. It is up to you to take charge of your own learning and behavior.
4. Come to class prepared. Please bring the necessary materials with you each day.
5. Be aware. Make sure you are keeping track of deadlines and expectations for your coursework. Check online platform(s) and email communication regularly.

8. Come talk to me! Be an advocate for your learning! If you ever have any questions or need help, do not hesitate to stop by and see me. I will be available both before and after school to discuss any issues or questions. We may also set up a time that is convenient for all involved. I can be reached at [email protected].
