Rules for Classroom
1. Respect!
2. Respect!
3. Respect!
I have 3 rules. And as you can see, the only rule is respect. In order to
be successful in life, you must respect everything and everyone. This
means: be respectful to the teachers, to each other, to my personal
belongings, to your classmates belongings, and most importantly yourself!
