If you require an extension for an assignment given during your absence, see me after school on your first day back.

- Courtesy is expected at all times, if the teacher or another student is sharing something with the class all students are expected to listen.
- Food, drinks and gum are NOT permitted in the computer room. These computers need to last a long time and any food or drink will damage them.
