SJGS MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of St. Joseph Grade School
is to provide an opportunity for all students to develop a sense of God’s
loving presence through academic excellence, Christian awareness, and spiritual
growth.
CLASSROOM RULES AND BEHAVIOR PLAN
Classroom Expectations:
1. Respect
2. Stay
on Task
-
3. Be
prepared and
In order to ensure that all
students and teachers are treated with respect, some expectations are required.
This year I will stress the importance of making good choices, and the
consequences of not making the right choice.
My first expectation is that each person in the class treats all other
persons with respect, (as they wish to be treated). My second expectation is readiness. Successful
students come prepared for class by having all items they will need for the
day, and with-in proper uniform. My final expectation is to be on task. If
students are on task they will succeed. If a student makes the wrong choice
about these expectations there will be a consequence. Positive consequences are
used to reinforce and reward student’s positive displays of behavior. Students
want to succeed when offered positive reinforcement for their good behavior. I
will continuously strive for a positive relationship with every student. I want
everyone to be comfortable at school.
ABSENCES/TARDIES
Please refer to the school handbook’s
Absence/Tardy Policy.
Extended Absences:
No make-up work can be sent in advance. All work will be made-up upon return in
an appropriate amount of time-one day for each day missed.
Missed Work:
Refer to handbook. One day for each day missed will be allowed to complete the
work.
CHEATING and PLARGARISM
Cheating will result in a lunchtime detention and
automatic Zero on that assignment or test. Continued cheating will result in
consultation with Mrs. Templeton and further consequences.

ALL PAPERS AND TESTS WITH GRADES OF D OR
F MUST BE SIGNED BY A PARENT AND RETURNED TO ME THE NEXT DAY.
HOMEWORK
Daily: Students will complete all unfinished work and
return the work to school the next day.
Please check Mystudentsprogress.com for assigned work as
well as student planners.
Homework Policy: Homework is expected on the day it is
due. Students will be required to finish or redo any homework that is not
turned in on the day it was due at recess.
Homework Folders: Students are
responsible to use their homework folder. Homework folders must be brought to
school each day with the completed homework. Homework will be turned in first
thing in the morning.
Planners:
Daily planners will be provided in which students will copy daily
homework assignments. Most of my communication to you will be in the planner.
Any discipline or concerns will also be communicated through the planner. I may
ask you for further communication.
Parents need to sign this agenda each day after the
homework is completed, and return the agenda to school the following day with
the homework folder. Students are responsible for writing their homework in
their agendas before they leave school every day. This assures that the student
takes responsibility for knowing what homework he or she is to complete and the
parent takes responsibility for overseeing the completion.
PARENTAL CONCERNS
Please feel free to send me notes, call me at school, or make appointments
for any concerns you have. If you wish
to schedule a conference with me please
contact the office in advance for an appointment, as this is school policy.
EMAIL:
My email address is mcasto@stjosephgs.org.
If you have not already done so please write to me so I will have your
e-mail. I am always open to parental concerns, and feel a good relationship
between teacher and parents result in a successful happy child.
Blogger: My blogger site is: www.mrscastosclass12.blogspot.com
I will frequently have assignments and information on my
blogger site. I try to update my blog every week, however new assignments, or
information will be posted as needed. Please save my blog under your favorites,
and check it every day.
CLASSROOM PARTIES
Birthday treats should be sent to the office and the
student will serve them at lunchtime. There will be many times I will beg for
snacks, but please do not send treats containing peanuts. Due to severe
peanut allergies, items containing peanuts will not be served, as this is
school policy.
