Expectations and High School Attendance Policy:

Art Room Rules and Expectations Arrive to class on time Participate and use class time wisely This means working on project work within a center. You will cooperatively design a learning plan with the teacher. In this learning plan you will layout what kind of media and content you would like to explore for the semester. Respect Peers, Teacher(s), Artwork, and Materials in the Art Room Centers are set up for those materials only. If you can not respect the materials the center will close. This means if you are working on a project within that particular center your project will go on hold and you will have to start something new. No Exceptions! No Food or Drink I will impose a fine for the person caught “dirtying” my classroom. If the person is not caught I will close the center where the garbage is found for one week. If I can not pinpoint which hour was at fault, ALL hours will be affected! If it is habitual the center will close permanently. No Running or Rough Housing No sitting on, drawing on, or defacing of tables (you will be fined for the cost of repair!) Meet Deadlines and Due Dates Because the implementation of centers will be included due dates will be worked individually with each student. You will be expected to complete 2-3 large projects per quarter! Use Appropriate Language Language that becomes a problem will be fined and added to your check out fees!
