Important Announcements:
PLEASE TURN IN YOUR 'EVERY 15 MINUTE' SIMULATION PERMISSION SLIP TO THE OFFICE BY MONDAY.
Reminder that Haygan and Hailey are including an Assembly tomorrow during PLT that goes with their Star Project "Every 15 Minute" simulation.
This assembly has very sensitive topics being brought up. While you may have not been impacted by the effectives of driving under the influence, others in the room may have. This is not a time to socialize with friends, have side conversations, or check your cell phones. Be attentive and respectful to speakers.
ASSEMBLY CONDUCT: All students are expected to pass to the gymnasium quietly and orderly, take their seats, and speak in low conversational tones until the program begins. General guides for behavior at assemblies:
1. Give the speaker your utmost cooperation and attention. Phones should be put away and on silent or turned off. The cell phone policy is in effect in an assembly setting.
2. Treat performers as guests.
3. Applaud only when applause is in order.
4. At the close of the program, wait for the signal to leave, then proceed back to the
proper classroom, quietly and orderly.
5. The rule restricting public display of affection applies during assemblies.
6. Any student acting in a rude disrespectful manner will be escorted out of the assembly
and will not be allowed to attend any assemblies for the remainder of the school year.
