In our classroom, we believe in teamwork and responsibility. That's why we have different classroom jobs that students can take on to help make our learning environment run smoothly. Each job comes with specific tasks and responsibilities, and it is important for the students to understand the requirements and expectations for each role. Let's take a closer look at the different classroom jobs available to our sixth-grade students: 1. Teacher's Assistant: The Teacher's Assistant plays a crucial role in our classroom. Their main responsibility is to remind the teacher of important tasks that need to be done throughout the day. This includes taking attendance, passing out papers to go home, and any other "do not forget" tasks that the teacher might need help with. The Teacher's Assistant needs to be organized, responsible, and reliable. 2. Supplies Monitor: The Supplies Monitor is responsible for ensuring that all classroom supplies are put away neatly. This includes making sure that pencils, pens, markers, and other materials are returned to their designated places after each use. The Supplies Monitor needs to be attentive to detail and have good organizational skills. 3. Technology Assistant: With our use of technology in the classroom, the Technology Assistant plays a vital role. They help students and guest teachers who might not be tech-savvy with chromebooks and other devices. The Technology Assistant should be comfortable with technology, patient, and willing to help others. 4.

The Room Monitor needs to be responsible, observant, and take pride in maintaining a tidy learning environment. 5.

They need to walk in a straight line, follow instructions, and be a positive role model for their peers. The Line Leader should be reliable, responsible, and demonstrate good leadership skills. 6.

Secretary: The Secretary takes down notes when directed in the class notebook and collects any papers for absent students, placing them in their designated file. They need to be organized, attentive, and have good handwriting. It is important to note that all of these roles come with certain requirements. To be considered for any of these jobs, you must be punctual and have good attendance. This means arriving to school and class on time every day. Additionally, honesty and reliability are crucial traits for anyone taking on these responsibilities. By working together and taking on these classroom jobs, we can create an environment that is conducive to learning, organized, and supportive. Each of these roles plays a vital part in our classroom community, and we appreciate the efforts of all students who take on these responsibilities.

We accomplish this by: Preparing students for university transfer through academically rigorous programs grounded in the liberal arts tradition of William & Mary Expanding access to college credentials through strategic partnerships, specialized programming, and scalable innovation. Values A Friendly Family Atmosphere It is a constant theme that emanated from faculty, staff, and students. It is the comfort, the warmth, the family feeling that permeates the campus. An expansive atmosphere of support that allows all members of the college to uncover and act on their inherent potential. The atmosphere is valued, and it is embedded at the very core of the college. Enthusiastic Student Focused Service Ask any faculty of staff member at RBC why they come to work on any given day, and a single answer will resound: STUDENTS. We value that our mission centers on the success of our student body, and we endeavor to provide service of the highest quality to support their journey to success. Processes and proceeded are built, assessed, and improved in the name of the student, and we agree that nurturing that potential is our sole purpose. The Power of Difference Difference comes in many forms: the diversity of our campus population; the myriad ways that problems can be solved and risks mitigated; the various methods in which students learn and can be supported; the entrepreneurial spirit and nimbleness of faculty and staff. RBC continually stives to build an inclusive and welcoming community of individuals with diverse talents and skills from multitude of backgrounds who are committed to civility, mutual respect, and the free and open exchange of ideas. We value these differences because each new exchange expands out collective breadth of experience and knowledge and makes us stronger and better than we were. Building Confidence The dramatic transformation that occurs in students between Welcome Week and Commencement is incremental but astounding. Students move from the general idea of college education to fully formulated plans that include academic majors, professional goals, and transfer programs that strategically align their skills and dreams. Faculty and staff grow personally and professionally, and they hit stride on their career goals as they interact and engage with the campus. We value that RBC is a place where every individual can assist another human being in reaching the next stage of their life and career with newly discovered confidence or cultivate their own individual potential and fortitude. Quality Outcomes In the end the result matter and the faculty, staff and students of RBC value that we do our best to be the best. Through rigorous processes of assessment and adjustment, strategic change is continuously pursued to ensure that every outcome is of the highest quality, and that every initiative uses the efforts and resources of the College responsibly and efficiently. Vision As an extension of William & Mary, Richard Bland College is in the vanguard of learning-outcomes based liberal arts education for university transfer and a model for testing and applying outcomes-driven solutions in higher education.
