Responsibility

Responsibility is the character trait for the month of November. Unfortunately, due to the irresponsible actions of some students, this question of the week will be the last one that is posted on my door. Some students decided that it was OK to write bad words and to cross out the positive comments that other students had written.  However, I can still read the great comments about how to be responsible, so here they are:

• Keep track of your belongings
• Do your homework
• Don't lose your homework
• Be responsible for what you have
• Don't blame other people for your actions
• Help others
• Bring all of your materials to school
• Listen to the teacher
• Be responsible for partnerships
