The guidelines and rules of CLC are reviewed in the Student Handbook. This page reviews the basic guidelines and rules of our classroom.

Think About It

If a teacher's energy is focused on discipline, that teacher has less energy to dedicate to creating and implementing great learning environments.

When a class is well behaved, the teacher and the students are more likely to develop mutual trust.  The teacher and the students are more likely to have high levels of energy and enthusiasm. Mutual trust and a high energy level make it possible, and more likely, for the teacher to take risks in creating super exciting and dynamic learning environments. Students benefit directly by being involved in more complex and powerful learning environments.

In the end, how much you learn and how much fun you have is up to you.
