      1. Daily Procedures
            a. Arrival to class: When you enter the classroom, you are expected to obtain the
                problem of the day, take your assigned seat, have the previous night’s homework out
                and ready to be checked, and complete the problem of the day.

            c. Dismissal: Please remain working and seated until I dismiss you.

       2. Tardiness
          You are expected to be in your assigned seat and ready to work when the bell rings.
          Students who are not in their assigned seat when the bell rings will be marked tardy. The
          Triton Regional High School tardy policy will be strictly enforced; for further information,
          consult the student handbook.

       3. Absences
          Consistent attendance is critical to academic success and students should strive to maintain
          good attendance.
             a. It is the student’s responsibility to obtain the missed notes and assignments, and
                 to complete all missed assignments. Assignments must be turned into the “make-up
                 work bin”. Students should arrange to copy notes and obtain assignments from a
                 classmate. If a student has missed a test or quiz, it is the student’s responsibility
                 to make arrangements to make-up the test or quiz.
             b. You have twice the number of days to complete missed work as the number of
                 days you are absent, for further information, consult the student handbook.
             c. When you return from an absence you are required to complete assignments that we
                 are working on that day, this includes tests and quizzes. If you were absent the day
                 of a test review, you are still required to take the test.

       4. Extra Help
