Plagiarism and Cheating
Plagiarism and cheating are taken seriously, and I follow district policy concerning this issue. If a student is caught cheating or plagiarizing they will receive the consequence as stated in the school discipline policy statement (refer to page 4 in the student handbook). I will also request a conference with the student’s parents. Please do not cheat or plagiarize, as it is not worth the loss of trust, credibility and points.
