Here is the 3rd posting regarding the newly revised parent/student handbook. A new posting will occur daily until all of the handbook has appeared once on the blog.
ACADEMIC HONESTY
The following guidelines are meant to clarify the teachers’ expectations with respect to student work:
1. Examinations: Giving or receiving information upon which a student is being tested before, during, or after a test is an act of academic dishonesty and is impermissible.
2. Acknowledgement of Sources: When using material from other sources (print, Internet, or otherwise), the student must acknowledge those sources. Teachers will clarify their expectations at the beginning of each course and before major assignments. If students are still unclear how to proceed, they should talk to the teacher.
3. Violation: As with any other school rule or policy, students who violate these academic policies will face disciplinary consequences. A “0” will be given when a student’s teacher has determined that the student was engaged in some form of academic dishonesty. It may also be grounds for not being nominated to the National Junior Honor Society or immediate dismissal form the NJHS.
