​Bathroom???

​Everyone gets 6 passes per quarter! (that's pretty much every other day)

​Step 1: Need to go potty? Raise your hand & then sign "bathroom" to me.

​I will either sign to you "yes," "no," or "wait."

​Step 2: Grab one of the pink passes, write your FULL NAME, DATE, TIME.

​Step 3: Give pass to teacher to sign (when not busy).

​Step 4: Go to bathroom quickly. You have 5 minutes. If you go over 10, you will lose a pass.

​Step 6: When you return, PUT YOUR PASS INTO THE BIN NEAR THE DOOR!

​

​*Need water? Bring a bottle.

​DON'T BE LATE

​If the bell rings and you are not in the class, you are LATE! If you are sprinting and almost at the room I MIGHT make the exception here and there but that is my choice.
