rules

C L A S S R O O M R U L E S

1. Respect yourself and others.                     3. Follow directions the first time they are given.

2. Respect property.                 4. Be prepared and on time for class.

    5. Talk only at appropriate times.

So, after talking with over 100 students we have finally settled on the following privileges that students can take advantage of during class time:

10 tickets = Switch lab positions for the day.

15 tickets = Extra pass to go to the restroom/get water without using the Privilege Card.

20 tickets = Exchange seats with any student in class for the day.

25 tickets = Swap your chair for the rolling chair for the day.

30 tickets = Be the Lab Volunteer for class wide Lab Demos.

35 tickets = Sit at the teacher's desk for the day.

40 tickets = Lunch in the Teacher's room (you must bring your lunch).

45 tickets = Extra Privilege Card.

50 tickets = Homework Pass.

Students will recieve a "Behavior Signing" for breaking any of the above rules.

1st Infraction = One signing in the Discipline Log Book and loss of 1 ticket.

2nd Infraction = One more signing in the Discipline Log Book and loss of 2 tickets.

3rd Infraction = One more signing in the Discipline Log Book and loss of 3 tickets.
                               Third signing in the same class will result in a Team Review.

Additional Infractions = All other infractions after the 3rd will result in an automatic office

Students will recieve a "Responsibility Signing" for things like: not having their homework complete, needing to use the restroom without having their Privilege Card, not bringing their supplies that are needed to class, etc.

Three Responsibility Signings equate to one Behavior Signing, ergo nine Responsibility Signings will lead to a Team Review.

T E A M   R E V I E W
A Team Review occurs after a child has acquired an equivalent to three Behavior Signings in the same class. All of the student's teachers will meet to discuss this student's behavior. Parent's will be contacted and a Conference will be reqeusted to discuss the student's behavior. A plan will be developed to modify the student's behavior and bring about desired results with Parental input.

Tickets, tickets, tickets! What's the deal with these stinkin' tickets anyway?

Okay, so here's the skinny. Students earn tickets in a variety of ways, some subjective and others are objective.

OBJECTIVE = things like . . .
OBJECTIVE - Getting the Brain Booster correct at the beginning of class = "HERO"!
OBJECTIVE - Having your things together and ready during classroom transition times.

SUBJECTIVE = things like . . .
SUBJECTIVE - Asserting oneself with random acts of kindness
SUBJECTIVE - Bringing the teacher snacks . . . just kidding! (NO, you cannot bribe me into SUBJECTIVE - giving you tickets, sorry guys! Any attempt will be FUTILE!)
SUBJECTIVE - Displaying self improvement, behaviorally, academically, socially, etc.
