Classroom Policies:
-Students can monitor their grades on Jupiter.
-Work that needs to be graded will go into the HANDED IN BIN, unless I collect it during class.
-Work that doesn’t have a name on it or is incomplete will go in the NO NAME BIN.
-Every Monday you will get a homework assignment. It will be due the next Monday. You are required to spend a minimum of 30 minutes on that homework.
-Students will keep their finished work in a portfolio that will stay at school. We will keep all the work they make for their entire career at Clinton. This is to assess student growth and keep their work available to them for high school portfolio requirements.
-Late work will receive a lower grade.
Sketchbook Guidelines:
-Always write the date and the assignment in your sketch book.
-Use the ENTIRE page. Sometimes I will ask you to sketch an item. If that doesn’t fill the whole page, you can use the rest of the page for another assignment.
*If contacting me via email, please be sure to use correct grammar and spelling and include your name and class so I know who I’m talking to.

The three following Hawk Habits are developed and assessed in all grades:
