Advertising, Economics, Marketing Essentials, Retail Store,
Business Law, and Entrepreneurship Supplies Needed For Sales and Advertising the following are recommended: Expectations for SSR/Advisory
Class
1. All students will have something to
read with them each day and read during SSR which will take place
on most days. This is not a time for completing homework,
writing notes to friends, studying for tests, exploring the
Internet, playing cards, engaging in conversation, or taking a
nap. It is a time to exercise the brain muscles, escape from
the rigors of life, and ultimately improve your life.
2. No iPods, cell phones, or other
electronic devices will be allowed in SSR/Advisory. If
students are seen with this technology, the item will be collected
by the teacher and the student must pick their belonging up after
the school day in the main office.
3. Ideally, students will be reading a
variety of literature during the year. The hope is that the
students will read books. However, it is permissible for the
student to read the daily newspaper and appropriate
magazines.
4. Students are expected to attend and to
participate in Advisory activities relating to school issues on a
regular basis. You will be expected to treat others with
respect at all times, but particularly during all class
discussions.
5. No passes out of class during
SSR/Advisory
Grading
SSR/Advisory is pre-arranged as a P/NC
class. Participation is the key element for receiving credit
in SSR/Advisory and students are expected to be in class
daily. If a student is not present they can not participate in
discussions with their advisory class, nor can the teacher observe
the student silent reading when they are not in
class. Absences directly impact a student’s progress
toward learning goals of the course and therefore the student's
grade in the course.

student’s grade. Many of the activities we discuss in

process. There is a famous quote, that says, “Just

your seat, ready to go and I will do the same.

class.
Entertainment Devices (per school

In
addition to the above named topics, we will work with
microeconomics and macroeconomics issues (whatever that is –
translated: you and how economics impacts the world in which
you live).
Everything
is related in some form or another, so just about any event,
relates to economics. Ultimately, how do we
live?
Junior
Achievement – Economics is a cornerstone of all
business. You and I, businesses, consumers, and everyone
around us are making economic decisions all the time. Our
country was founded on the principals of Free Enterprise,
Capitalism, and a Market Economy. We may not understand the
terms but we must understand the principals of our economic system
if we/it is to survive. Junior Achievement has provided our
class a business professional to be a guest teacher for five (5)
basic economic lessons. This segment of our class is graded
and represents approximately 10% of our total
grade.
JUNIOR

extension before it is due, makes you a reliable / dependable
employee (Happy Employees have Happy Supervisors)!

on an electronic device or other item. This lack of attention
has significant grade implications.

Customer Service Pledge
We strive to provide our customers the best in customer service while providing them with "healthy and nutritious" snacks, focused on lower fat and sugar contents. At the same time abiding by our district nutritional policy. Our Goals to practice:
The following are a list of policies to keep you and our customers safe. Retail Store Policies:
Each Employee (Student) is assigned a shift. Employees will rotate through the store positions, being assigned one position each week on a particular shift. Once Employees have rotated through all shifts and completed a training process they will be provided a self evaluation which they will reconcile with their assigned manager (at approximately 9 weeks in to semester). Following the combined evaluation, employees will be evaluated every week (approximately 10 or 11 additional grade opportunities). Once Employees have rotated through each position in the store they may register or be assigned to a particular position. Grading the positions: All positions start each week with (80 points) B grades! It is the employees responsibility to keep or improve that grade. Till and Cashier Positions The Till / Cashier is the most difficult and challenging position in the Employee store. Ultimately, this individual must reconcile their cash register with the monies they have collected. They are held accountable for any errors via their grade (just as Mr. Ide and our Store Managers are held accountable by the District Administration and ASB office) for variances in reconciling their till. Our Store Managers are also held accountable through their grades as well. This is serious business for all personnel in the store.
(Back to Top of Student Store) Employee Record
Retail Store Positions/Activities: The following is a brief summary of the duties and positions in the student store: Till / Cashier: Cleans and picks up work area. Is responsible for leaving work area neat, stocked, and clean. Works the register, is responsible for knowing the price and availability of all merchandise, customer service, and register operations. Is required to remain at the cash register at all times. Greets Customers. Runner: Cleans and picks up work area. Is responsible for leaving work area neat, stocked, and clean. Selects / pulls items for cashier(s). Greets customers. Hot Water: Cleans and picks up work area. Is responsible for leaving work area neat, stocked, and clean. Responsible for maintaining hot water availability by filling water pots. Microwave: Cleans microwave and area around microwave. Is responsible for producing warmed products for customers. Assist with till and runner personnel while waiting for finished product. (Back to Top of Student Store) Always count back the change to the customer! Our Cash Registers will always begin and end with the same amount of money called a float. It is the Cashier’s responsibility to leave the float in the denominations (bills and coins) that are closest to the float.
If you are a cashier and do not have these denominations, check with other cashiers. Always leave $45.00 in the till – No more – No less. Before beginning shift: Till must be counted by two people (one till person from the current shift and one till person from the previous shift). Both employees need to be working on the same till Example: Shift 1 till A counts only till A on shift 2. End of shift: Till and deposit must be counted by shift one and shift two operators of the till being reconciled. This is to make sure that both agree on the till amount. Deposit: Everything above and beyond $45.00 is to be deposited and given to a manager before you leave. You are responsible for the money until you have deposited it and physically handed it to a manager. Fill out your deposits in a secure area. There should be no friends or books, or any other items near where you are completing your deposit. Always protect your money! Do not leave it unattended.
