10. Student Expectations: 1.Do homework every night – not just before test or at end of semester so you can get credit. 2.Take notes during class. 3.Exhibit good work ethic – no slacking off! 4.Come in for extra help when needed.

11. Teacher Expectations: 1.Have optional prerequisite skills packet on- line that can be done this summer 2.Hold before school help sessions 2 days each week (after school sessions will be held when needed) 3.Post calendar for periods of 1 or 2 weeks on- line 4.Hold study sessions in preparation for the new GHSGT

12. Assessments: 1.Higher level thinking questions will be included 2.Will have one or more assessments during each chapter 3.Will prepare students to take NEW GHSGT 4.No more PLATO for recovery of low or failing test grades or averages

13. Placement for 2011-2012 School Year AP Calculus AB or AP Calculus BC and/or AP Statistics or New Discrete Math Placement will be determined by students work ethic and grades. If a student does not exhibit a good work ethic along with good grades, he or she will not be recommended for the AP Calculus BC class.
