Class Policies
Supplies- Students need to have the following items in class everyday: Interactive Student Notebook, and personal supplies like pencils, glue sticks, colored pencils, highlighters, etc.
ISN (Interactive Student Notebook) - The ISN is an invaluable tool for our classroom. Warm-ups, notes, quizzes, and other activities will be done in the ISN or be added upon completion. Quiz, daily, and comprehensive grades will be taken from the ISN, which will be housed in the classroom. Occasionally, students will be allowed to take their ISN home. They must return their ISN quickly, ISNs are vital part of instruction.
Academic Interventions- For students with an average below 70%, there will be interventions provided to ensure that they master the curriculum. These interventions may include lunch detentions or tutorials, temporary loss of elective, advisory tutorials, after school detention, or Saturday school.
Tardy Policy- Any student is considered Tardy if they are not in their assigned seat with all listed supplies when the bell rings. Exceptions of course will be made with signed notes from campus staff.
Cellphone Policy- RRISD policy is that cell phones are not to be on, visible, or audible during school hours.
-
Cell phones must remain off during off campus times if the student remains on campus
-
Cell phones may not be used by a student when driving (new state law)
-
Cell phones may not be used by any person while in a school zone (new state law)
Cell phones can be confiscated and turned into the student's grade level office. Cell phones can be picked up by a student or parent at the end of the student's school day for a fee of $15.00. Certainly there are emergency situations. We urge parents and students to communicate with the school about special circumstances as early as possible. Students are always allowed to use the phone in any office to make calls to arrange for rides or handle other personal matters. There is a phone for student use in the main office.
