This document provides an overview of the expectations and procedures for a Civics class. It outlines skills that students will build in the class like time management, study habits, goal setting, note-taking, and collaboration. These skills are needed for high school and life. Students are instructed to review classroom procedures, fill out a student information sheet, and read about the course brochure and materials list.
