New Rules at EBV

New year, new rules! As the 2015-2016 school year starts, new rules have been applied to Escuela Bella Vista students and teachers. There were two main rules up to debate, the Retakes Policy and the Daily Assessment’s Policy. Last year the rule was that people who scored lower than 81% could retake a major exam, this year it stays the same. You can only retake two times a major exam. The Daily Assessment’s Policy was that if the student missed it, he only had 24 hours to retake. The policy stays the same from last year, only that students who are late to the class can’t do the D.A. To make up the D.A., they have to come after-school. Last year tardies were a big problem, so this year if you come 3 times late, you get a “Falta Leve”.  Another new rule is that students who are picked up after 3:45 pm need to go to Dr. Rosie’s office so they are not alone. The Gum Policy is the same, chewing gum is not allowed in the classrooms. This year some teachers asked their students to have their shirt tucked in, but some teachers don’t. Most students leave their bags on the floor or on the top of the locker, you are breaking a rule students! Dr. Rosie sent an email saying that bags need to be inside the lockers. Now, the new rule that has students furious is the Phone Policy. All students need to have their phones inside their lockers except the seniors that can have them in their bags. Remember, not following the rules can get you in trouble!
