    CAREER & TECHNICAL EDUCATION

    Care of Equipment

     

    1. Take care of our equipment. Do not do anything that could cause harm or break any piece of equipment. Students are not allowed to plug-in any personal devices to the computer.
    2. Internet is not allowed without specific per use permission from teacher.
    3. Do not key anything into your files that is inappropriate or not school related. This especially includes pictures, game, music and video files. Those file types take up huge amounts of storage space on our server and prevent the storage room needed for legitimate school files. Spot checks will be made and files found will be deleted without notification to student.
    4. When on the Internet, students are not allowed to download any file. Downloading makes us susceptible to infection that can lead to damage of software and/or hardware.
    5. Social networking sites are prohibited. 
    6. Music and Video sites are prohibited without permission.
    7. Access by proxy use is prohibited.
    8. Food and drinks are NEVER allowed in the computer lab.

     

    Classroom Discipline Policy

    CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS:

    Be IN YOUR SEAT ready to go before the tardy bell.

    Be respectful of others and property

    Students are prohibited from crossing the blue line that surrounds the teacher’s area. If a student enters into this area of the classroom without permission, they will receive disciplinary action.

    All student’s personal effects (i.e. notebooks, textbooks, novels, backpacks, purses, tablets, clothing that is not worn) must be placed in the designated section at the front of the room that is defined by a blue rectangle with a bookshelf. If a student refuses to comply with this rule, their personal effects must be removed from the room.
     
    Come prepared for class and complete your work.
     
    Student will have access to a personal school email and MS OneDrive cloud storage. 
     
    These technologies are to be strictly used for school use only. These technologies are prohibited from having music, videos, movies, games, etc.
     
    Students are to use the restroom during the passing period between classes. Students will be given 2 restroom/clinic passes per semester. The restroom/clinic passes may not be used during the first or last 15 minutes of class or during lecture.  Students may only go to the restroom/clinic during independent coursework time. If a student goes to the restroom and is gone for more than 6 minutes they will forfeit all other restroom/clinic passes for the remainder of the year. If a student needs to go to the restroom/clinic more frequently, an email/pass from the school nurse must be given to Mrs. Nelson prior to the additional need.
     

    Do your own work--students caught cheating will receive a "0" on that assignment or test, be sent to appropriate administrator and have citizenship grade lowered two letter grades. Giving as well as getting information carry the same penalty. Cheating/submitting another student’s file/work, being logged in as another student or working at a station where another student is logged in.

    Students involved in ANY misuse/abuse/damage/destruction of equipment or furniture will be dealt with severely. The student may be required to pay the replacement value of property damaged or destroyed.
     
    Students that are assigned In-School-Suspension (ISS) or Out-Of-School-Suspension (OSS) will be responsible for completing their work on their own time. Students in ISS will not be permitted to have access to electronic devices (i.e. phones, tablets, laptops, desktops) throughout the duration of their time in the ISS classroom. The district Make-Up work attendance policy for absences will be enforced when student miss class for ISS/OSS. For more clarification about the completion of computer assignments in ISS all questions and concerns need to be addressed to CHS Administration.

    GRADING POLICY: Daily & Quizzes=50%; Tests=50%. Late Work: None accepted. Considered late at the end of class, unless otherwise noted by teacher. Make-up Work: It is the student's responsibility to get assignments missed because of absence, ISS/OSS, or testing. Makeup work is due within 3 days after returning to class. If a test was missed because of absence, student will need to schedule a make-up day with the teacher either before (7:45-8:15) or after (3:55-4:15) school.  Re-tests are available (see Re-teach/Re-evaluate Policy in Student Handbook).
