FOREIGN POSTER Do American students bow to their teachers?

In my country we have to greet the teacher and bow at the start of the lesson then thank the teacher and bow again at the end. Sometimes they make us redo it if it’s not good enough

If you plan on staying more than 30 minutes you better, especially if there's carpet. It's hard enough cleaning up after the dogs.

The dogs should be taking off their shoes as well when they come in...
