Best solution--extra 25 points with this answer--KEEP YOUR CHROMEBOOK CHARGED AT HOME BEFORE YOU COME TO SCHOOL.
True or False: It is ok to use whatever type of writing utensil I would like to complete my work.
FALSE
You are to always use a pencil, unless you are taking personal notes or writing something just for yourself. All schoolwork is expected to be completed in pencil--at school or done at home.

True! If class has not started and you are waiting for instruction to begin, take responsibility to get your supplies ready for learning!
True or False:If you are not in the room and seated when the bell rings(or it is time for class to start) you are considered tardy.
True!!!!!!!!! You should be in your seat and ready to start when the class starts--the exception is if you have a note from another teacher that is the cause of your lateness or you have informed the teacher you are going somewhere and return late.
True or False: If you are going to miss class due to an appointment, sports, or illness. You do not need to make up the work missed.
FALSE: If you know ahead of time you will be gone, the office needs an adult to let them know(or for sports, you communicate that to your teacher.) You are then responsible for getting your work ahead of the absence and it is due on your return.
If you are sick, you can look on the portal/planner page for what you are missing and do what you can while you are at home. Your adult call also arrange for us to send work home with someone or they can come and get it. You are allowed one day for each day you are sick to complete work. If you are in quarantine be sure to try to keep up with your work while you are at home if you are able.
True or False: My Chromebook is mine to do with what I choose.
False: The Chromebook you are lucky enough to have is school property. It is your responsibilty to take care of it and you will have to pay for any damage. It is for school only. What you do on it is viewable by the school and you are expected to use it only for school related activity.
