Be Appropriate and Respectful

All behavior in school can be summed up in two words:

appropriate and respectful

Are your actions appropriate and respectful?

If the answer is no, your actions are inappropriate.

Feel free to do anything that doesnt cause a problem for

anyone else.

If you cause a problem, I will ask you to solve it.

If you cant solve it, I will present solutions to the problem.
