We have reviewed the above course descriptions and expectations. Student Initials ______ Parent/Guardian _______
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT EXPECTATIONS 1. BE RESPECTFUL
● Respect others and their property. This includes the teacher’s desk and other materials. Treat all students and school personnel with respect.
● School Phones – Telephones in the classrooms are used for school business NOT student personal business. Leave them alone!● Electronics – All electronic devices (MP3 players, iPods, Cell phones, etc.) must be off and put away during class as per TMSA
policy unless specifically instructed to do so for a lesson. Headphones will NOT be worn in class unless specifically instructed to doso for a lesson.
2. BE PREPARED● Books and Supplies – Bring all of your supplies EACH day. Do not leave any of your materials in the room unless instructed by me
to do so. Science rooms have enough “stuff” in them as it is, so take all your belongings with you!
3. DO YOUR BEST● After school tutoring – Attend after school tutorials (Thursday 2:20-3:20pm). Students are strongly encouraged to attend.
Recovery credit is available for student not mastering test concepts.
4. SAFETY FIRST● Safety First – Sign and return Safety Contract. READ and FOLLOW ALL safety precautions and procedures. Unsafe behaviors will
result in the removal of the student from the course.
5. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS● Follow all instructions, printed and verbal. Follow all Triangle Math and Science Academy and classroom rules and
expectations.
6. KEEP CLASSROOM CLEAN; NO EATING OR DRINKING● Eating/Drinking – There can be no food or drinks in science classrooms, and NO GUM. It is a violation of Federal Regulations for
safety.
7. USE TIME EFFICIENTLY; WORK FROM BELL TO BELL● HALL PASSES – All personal business must be handled before class time. Hall passes will be issued in emergency situations only.
The 10/10 restroom policy will be followed, no hall passes during the first or last ten minutes of class.● Bell-to-Bell instruction – Teachers are expected to engage their students the entire classroom time. DO NOT expect free time.
Students must be in assigned seats for classroom dismissal! NO LINING UP AT THE DOOR!● Tardies – Be in your seat ready for class when the tardy bell rings. If you come into the class late you must have a valid pass from
an administrator ONLY. The school tardy policy will be followed.● Sleeping/Head Down – These are signs the student is not actively engaged and learning in the classroom. To assist the student in
maintaining focus, they will tuck in their chair and stand up on first occasion with further consequences if the problem persists.
8. BE IN THE RIGHT PLACE, AT THE RIGHT TIME, DOING THE RIGHT THINGClassroom Behavior – Good student behavior and being prepared for class will help you achieve success. Class disruption can earnyou extra time at lunch or after school.
I understand the above rules and consequences and will abide by them

I WILL: 1. Follow all written and oral instructions given by the teacher2. Ask questions, or state concerns before beginning a lab procedure3. Behave in a manner that will ensure the health and safety of myself and others in the laboratory or classroom at all
times.4. Use protective devices for my eyes, face, hands, body, and clothing during laboratory activities5. Know the location and use of first aid and fire extinguishing equipment6. Refrain from eating, drinking, chewing gum, or applying cosmetics during laboratory7. Keep my work area clean and free of clutter during lab class.
I understand and realize that many accidents are caused by carelessness and being in a hurry. I will come to class prepared to be responsible so that the safety and welfare of myself and others are not jeopardized.
Outdoor Labs Science classes benefit from laboratory experiences conducted on the grounds surrounding TMSA High School.
These experiences involve a class leaving the building and going into areas in the immediate vicinity of the school. These are laboratory exercises and all laboratory safety rules are in effect. Because we will be out of the classroom, it is prudent to inform parent(s) and obtain permission for student participation in these activities.
Each activity is designed with a purpose to fulfill course objectives. Students will be supervised at all times. There are risks such as insect bites, scratches, getting dirty, a little wet, and even, at times encountering wildlife. Because of these risks, however slight, it is important that we are notified if your child has any condition that would preclude his/her participation in these exercises. An alternative, topic related, task will be provided for any student unable to participate and the student will be under normal teacher supervision.
Students and parents are asked to read, sign and date this form at the bottom and return to their science teacher. Students will not be allowed to participate until this slip is returned (and will not receive credit for any lab activity missed).
_____ No, my child does NOT have my permission to participate in outdoor laboratories.
Please identify any known conditions or allergies that may affect or limit participation in the indoor or outdoor exercises. (If additional space is needed, please attach.)
Feel free to include any other information I should know to better serve your child:
Parent and Student Acknowledgement: I/We have read the information above and agree to comply with the lab safety rules. If you have any questions, please email me at [email protected]
