Scott Fitzgerald The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne Classroom/ Course Expectations Students are expected to respect each other, the classroom environment, the instructor, and any and all visitors to the classroom. Students are expected to be on time for class. After the first three tardies the student will be issued a detention and for every tardy thereafter. Students are expected to be prepared for class and participate in every and all activities during the block. The students are expected to respect any and all ideas, interpretations, and discussions within the course. Students are expected to respect themselves and others by abiding to all classroom, school, and school district rules, procedures, and policies. Students are expected to do their own coursework at all times. Any form of cheating- including plagiarism- will result in a zero for that particular assignment/ grade. ***Students who violate the classroom rules and expectations will be assigned appropriate discipline per the staff and student handbooks as well as PSD policy. Grading Procedures: Grades are calculated weighted scale for each assignment type. The grading scale is as follows: 90- 100= A 80- 89= B 70-79= C 60-69= D Below 60= F Course weighting: Tests= 40% Quizzes=30% Class work=10% Homework=10% Employability=10% Absences: A student who has an excused absence(s) will be given the number of days absent plus one to make up any missed work. Tests and announced quizzes missed due to absence are to made up the day after the students return unless contraindicated by a doctors note. Such make ups will be done before or after school at the instructors discretion. No tests will be made up during the class period as class time is extremely important. A student with an unexcused absence(s) will not be permitted to make up work until the unexcused absence is changed to an excused absence. School procedures require all unexcused absences to be documented with the attendance office within three days of the absence. Students who are discovered to have cut class will be given a zero on all assignments- including exams and projects- with no possibility of make- up. bc 8 L X ׫sZDZDZD+h QB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1h3hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 4h3h35B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH h S5CJOJQJaJh Sh35CJOJQJaJ+h3B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +h5FB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH #hy B*OJQJ^JmH phsH b : < ~ * ,  $^a$gd~gdy h^hgd3^gd3gd3$a$gdy X b x z | ( ӺӺ麋q[@4hy hy 5B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 2hy B*CJOJPJQJ^JaJmH o(phsH +hqB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1h3h3B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1h3hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +h QB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +hDPB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH     6 ; < A F G I J W i ҹҹlV==1hy 6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH +h~B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1h~h~B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1h~hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 4h~h~B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 1h~6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH +hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .h~5B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH  G i   - W X w hCDXgdo{8^8gd3 & Fgdo{$a$gdy gdy i   踠pZ?'.hy 5B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 4hy hy 5B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +hB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .hq6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .hy 6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .h6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .hH@6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .h~6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH .hY"d6B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH    - @ W X w GHBCDXp̶̶ufWE9h3CJOJQJaJ"h3h356CJOJQJaJh356CJOJQJaJho{56CJOJQJaJ"h3ho{56CJOJQJaJhPfCJOJQJaJho{ho{CJOJQJaJho{ho{5CJOJQJaJhy +hy B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1hy 6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 4hy hX5B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH XY'5FUijuvgdo{TUijuho{ho{5CJOJQJaJho{h?CJOJQJaJh3CJOJQJaJho{CJOJQJaJho{ho{CJOJQJaJh?CJOJQJaJ,1h/ =!"#$% ^ 666666666vvvvvvvvv666666>6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666hH6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666662 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH @`@ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA D Default Paragraph FontRiR  Table Normal4 l4a (k (No List 4^@4 y Normal (Web)bob 3Default 7$8$H$-B*CJOJQJ^J_HaJmH phsH tH PK![Content_Types].xmlj0Eжr(΢Iw},-j4 wP-t#bΙ{UTU^hd}㨫)*1P' ^W0)T9<l#$yi};~@(Hu* Dנz/0ǰ $ X3aZ,D0j~3߶b~i>3\`?/[G\!-Rk.sԻ..a濭?PK!֧6 _rels/.relsj0 }Q%v/C/}(h"O = C?hv=Ʌ%[xp{۵_Pѣ<1H0ORBdJE4b$q_6LR7`0̞O,En7Lib/SeеPK!kytheme/theme/themeManager.xml M @}w7c(EbˮCAǠҟ7՛K Y, e.|,H,lxɴIsQ}#Ր ֵ+!,^$j=GW)E+& 8PK!Ptheme/theme/theme1.xmlYOo6w toc'vuر-MniP@I}úama[إ4:lЯGRX^6؊>$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
