3)Take Ownership of Your Education: I do not GIVE grades. All grades in our class will be based on your individual effort. Set goals, evaluate your progress, adhere to high standards and revise your performance when needed. Also, ask questions when something is unclear, participate in classroom discussions, and ask for extra help if you need it. This is your education – get everything you can out of it!
