Students shall be allowed and expected to make up assignments and tests after absences.
Students will be allowed the numbers of days they were absent plus one to complete make-up
work.
Team 6-2 Discipline – Titan Tokens
All of Team 6-2 will run on a system that we believe helps students with their organization, personal
responsibilities, and appropriate behavior within the classroom.
● Each nine week grading period, the students have the opportunity to earn “Titan Tokens”.
Tokens will be tracked on a sheet that will be kept in the students’ team binders, and will be
expected to be with them for the entire grading period.
● On the flip side, a student can also receive “Titan Tickets”. Teachers will sign off on these
“tickets” for violations of team/school policies. These infractions include the expectations listed
on the previous page and any other off-task behavior that the teacher deems inappropriate.
● Consequences of Titan Tickets are:
o If 4 tokens are withdrawn, the student will have a student/teacher conference.
o If 8 tokens are withdrawn, the parent will be contacted.
o If 12 tokens are withdrawn, the student will serve lunch detention.
o If 16 tokens are withdrawn, the student will have an office referral.
● Students will have an opportunity to deposit “bonus” tokens when they are “caught” going
above and beyond with excellent citizenship including acts of kindness and leadership. These
will be given at teachers’ discretion. Good choices will be rewarded/celebrated each grading
period.
● Students will have one opportunity to replace a lost token sheet. However we will not replace
the amount of lost tokens. As well as, the first column on the ticket side will be marked out. If
lost a second time, students will receive a detention in place of taking a ticket.
● All students will receive a new set of tokens, and a clean slate, at the beginning of each nine
weeks.
