While historical events themselves are unique, they are often driven by common forces. These recurring themes include power and authority, revolution, religious and ethical systems, cultural interaction, empire building, and science and technology. We study these themes to show that around the world and through time, humans have confronted similar obstacles and have shared similar goals.
Student Expectations
Students will come to class prepared with their text, notebook, writing utensils, and completed assignments. Students must behave in such a way that is conducive to a classroom, a learning environment. All students' rights to an education must be observed. Students must respect school property and the property of others.
Make-Up
Make-up work is the responsibility of the absent student. Students must see me before class, after class, or during break for their missing assignments. Test and quizzes must be made up during my prep if the student is available or before or after school. Quizzes not made up one week after the absence will be recorded as a zero.
Late Work
If work is not passed in on the due date, students will have only one additional day to pass in the work for credit. The late work will only receive a maximum of 80%.
Extra Assignments
Extra assignments are given to help students master the competencies.
