6th grade is different

• The desks in the classrooms are to keep items in
  during that class period.
• Your locker is where your personal belongings
  should be kept.
• You give lunch money directly to cafeteria.
• Teachers do not walk you from class to class.
  This is greatexcept you need to be more
  responsible for your behavior in the hallways!

NOTES

• If you arrive to school late, you need to report
  to the office. If you arrive after 830, you
  will be given a pass that must be signed by every
  teacher that you have for the remainder of the
  day.
• If you will be leaving school early, you need to
  take a note to the OFFICE before homeroom.
• If someone will be picking you up immediately
  after school, you do not need to notify us.

Buses

• If you will be taking a different school bus
  home, two notes must be taken to Mrs. Kotch in
  the CAFETERIA one from you and one from your
  friend.
• An activity (late) bus is available on Tuesdays
  and Thursdays. If you need to sign up for the
  late bus, you need to do so in the CAFETERIA with
  Mrs. Kotch.

Pod 2s Class Expectations

• (Everything you need to know to survive 6th
  grade!)

9
You will be respectful to everyone in the class.
This includes yourself, your peers, us, and any
other adult in the room.
10
You will come to class prepared with the
following

• Homework
• Pencil
• Binder or Folder
• Covered textbook
• Assignment book

11

• Class begins when you enter a classroom. You
  should sharpen your pencil before class begins.
  Your homework needs to be on your desk and you
  need to have all materials ready.

12
If you do not have your homework for any reason
(you forgot, you left it at home, you left it in
your locker, you lost it), it will be counted as
a missed assignment.
13
You will take notes and participate in class.
14
You will ask us for help if you need it. You can
see us during homeroom, during your lunch recess
time, or during 9th period for extra help. That
is why we are here.
15
You will take responsibility for the work you
missed due to an absence. Upon returning from an
absence, you will check in with us in the morning
before homeroom. Asking us what you missed at
the beginning of class is unacceptable.
16
We expect you to do your best!

• We will do everything we can to make this a
  successful year.

17
What if I am absent?

• Check our website at home to see what you missed,
  and if possible work on any assignments.
• Take your excuse to the attendance table in the
  cafeteria the day you return.
• YOU are responsible for seeing your teachers the
  day you return to schedule make-up work and
  tests.
• Parents may call us for work so you do not get
  behind!
