Mr. Helbig’s Rules

 

-         Be in seat when the bell rings to avoid a tardy. Tardy problems can get you locked out of 1st hour class and result in an unexcused absence.

-         Leaving the classroom

o       If you put your books down and ask before the bell, you may go without using your passbook. If this is being abused, it will be taken away. (This rule does not apply to 1st or 5th hour classes.)

o       During class, you may only go if you have your passbook and we are not doing anything as a group. You may go without your passbook if you are willing to take a tardy.

o       YOUR passbook or a tardy is necessary to leave class for any reason other than to meet another teacher.

-         Materials

o       Book, pen/pencil, paper must be brought everyday.

o       Under no circumstances will you be able to borrow from me.

o       If you need to borrow from someone, do so before I start class.

o       Assignments/tests may be done in pen or pencil. Pen is actually preferred. Please no red or pastel colors.

-         No food or drink. Period. Unless you have a medical condition.

-         Don’t touch my stuff without permission.

o       When using my stuff, put it back where it came from.

o       Pick up all of your trash.

-         Assignments with fringes will no be accepted.

-         Assignments with no names will thrown away.

-         Talking before the entire class is finished will result in a 10% deduction.

-         Missing class

o       If you know you are going to miss class for a school activity, let me know before hand.

o       I will not chase you down for make-up work. It is your responsibility to get it from me. Failure to get it, or make arrangements to retake a test, will result in a zero.

o       If you want to give blood in the afternoon, you must ask me if it is OK first if you have me for an afternoon class. (No one is EVER done in time for their next class, trust me.)
