Mrs. Bryant's Expectations ➲ I write violations on my board because the most common violations given are for not logging off and pushing your chair in and I cannot tell the student(s) until the next day. I place the name on the board because I do not want to forget to tell the student(s). ➲ Occasionally I place a student(s) into lunch detention. I follow the same procedures as other teachers for this. ➲ If you are tardy to my class, I record this in my gradebook.
