Columbus East High School
Resource TimeThe purpose of resource is to provide a tool for students to work on school work along with providing students the opportunity to take ownership of their learning as students can decide where they need to go to get the help they need.The resource is like an extended, flexible classroom. Students need to be seated in a resource area when the bell rings, prepared to do work. Please remember and follow these simple rules:
- If a student needs to move to a different resource, this needs to be done quietly and after 10 minutes.
- If a student needs to move to a different floor, i.e. locker, library, guidance, etc. he/she needs a pass.
- The noise level should be at a low level, similar to the downtown library or the library at the learning center.
- NO food or drink on the resource floor.
While not considered a credit class, resource time must be attended by students. It is part of their scheduled day. There are no free periods or double lunches at East. Students are mandated by the state to meet the required time of instruction. Resource time is part of that requirement, and all unscheduled time is to be spent in a supervised area of school unless special permission has been granted.
