Behavior Expectations

 

     Most adolescents anxiously anticipate the new freedom they will enjoy when they become licensed drivers.  As we all know, however, driving is a privilege, not a right.  Privileges can be revoked.  This is a lesson better learned in the safety of the classroom, rather than on the roadways of life later on.  In order to promote an awareness that all behaviors (good and bad) result in consequences, our Behavior Expectations are modeled after the rules of the road.  Here is a summary of what we will follow in class:
