    Mrs.

    LeMieux’s Government &


    Economics Class
    San Marin High School
    Welcome to Gov and Econ! This promises to be a challenging but exciting year as
    we explore the major topics surrounding our government and economy.

    Government Economics
    Balance of Power Economic Basics
    Government Branches Supply & Demand
    Political Parties Business Organizations
    Elections/Political Participation Macroeconomics
    Civil Rights/Liberties Personal Finance

    Course Goals
    It is my hope that you will develop a love for learning and current events. Through our
    course of study, you will develop your skills as a communicator, citizen, and critical
    thinker. The curriculum is based on the California State Standards for Government and
    Economics. For access to the full text of the standards, go to www.nusd.org.

    Course Objectives
    Students will trace the major themes and structures of US Government and Economics.

    Texts
    • A district issued Chromebook with regular access to Google Classroom
    • Various online resources provided by teacher through Google Classroom

    Progress Reporting
    Students’ current grades are visible online using the Aeries system, accessible using the
    district website. Please contact me if you have any questions about your student’s
    progress or performance in my class. Formal grades shall be reported at the end of each
    progress reporting period for all students.

    Grading
    Assignments will be graded based on the following weighted categories
    Category %
    Learning Target 40%
    Assessments
    Other Assessments/Projects 20%
    Classwork 20%
    Asynchronous Work 20%

    Your percentage of points earned in each of these categories will translate to the
    following grade scale;
    A=90-100% B=80-89% C=70-79% D=60-69% F=0-59%

    Given that grades are more heavily weighted toward demonstrating understanding,
    opportunities will be given to retake exams in alternate versions and opportunities.
    Behavior
    Students are expected to behave in a mature fashion. Disrupting the online classroom
    learning environment will result in referrals and calls home. Expectations and
    consequences will be described for students on the first day. Please remember that Zoom
    calls may be recorded and are often seen/heard by people other than your teachers and
    classmates. Younger siblings, your teachers young children, other parents etc. are often
    listening to classroom interactions. Let this guide your behavior.

    Commitments & Expectations


    BE RELIABLE
    • Be in class on time, prepared, and ready to work with your Chromebook charged.
    • Your name and camera must be on and you must be recognizable for attendance
    credit (or to be let into the Zoom session)

    BE FOCUSED
    • Use your technology productively.
    • Use your school issued Chromebook
    • Be prepared for Go Guardian, especially on assessments.
    • PUT YOUR PHONE AWAY!

    SHOW EFFORT
    • PARTICIPATE. Join class discussions as I value your unique input. Ask
    Questions. Complete assignments with your best work possible. You will get out
    of this class only what you put in.
    • Do your own work. Any student caught cheating or plagiarizing (the fancy word
    for cheating by copying) will receive a zero on the assignment and your parents
    will be notified.

    SHOW RESPECT
    • Don’t be a jerk, respect your fellow classmates, myself, and my room. Watch
    your language please.

    Absent/Late Work
    Late work is accepted at partial credit. There is always a chance to pass this class. Absent
    work is due the day you return and it is the student’s responsibility to communicate with
    me regarding any issues they are facing. I am a very understanding person but I cannot
    understand what I do not know.
