 * Homework || Homework will be checked on a regular basis and is an integral part of the course grade and successful completion of homework will lead to success in the course. It is you and your goals in life that will motivate you to do your homework to the best of your ability and achieve at a high level. Every time that you do not complete your homework, it will result in a mandatory tutorial. ||
 * Respect the place of learning || * Put as much effort into learning as you can – do your best work, every day.
 * Seek help when needed – it is both irresponsible and unwise to give up when things get tough. It is OK to ask for extra help
 * Do not talk when someone else is talking to the group. Put up your hand if you have a question or want to express an opinion on the days work.
 * Talk only of math – class time is not social time. I will not seek you in the hallway when you are talking to your friends and ask you to sit down and do some math, you should have the courtesy to show the same level of respect to the class by talking only of math concepts in an honest and forthright manner.
 * Cell phones may not be used as substitute calculators. ||

 * If you are late, enter silently and do not disturb the class.

 * Teacher Responsibilities || My job is to __help__ you learn the course. I cannot __make__ you learn. I can only present the material, help you complete the work, and check for understanding. It is also my responsibility to let your parents know if you are not doing your job, just as you will likely let them know if I am not doing mine. ||
 * Parent Responsibilities || Parents are asked to:
 * Return phone calls and e-mails, as promptly as they can.
