Honor Pledge
I am responsible for neither giving nor receiving assistance on tests, examinations or class assignments that
are to be graded as the work of a single individual. I understand that the actual giving or receiving of any
unauthorized assistance or unfair advantage on any form of academic work constitutes an academic violation,
as does the act of plagiarizing information. I am fully aware that an academic violation will result in a zero
with no opportunity to make up the assignment and will be documented with a discipline referral to
administration.
Absences
The expectation for absences is the following:
Legitimately excused absences should FIRST be given to the school secretary. Thereafter, the written excuse
should be shared with each classroom teacher. The secretary will provide students with a cover sheet for
attachment purposes. Each teacher should update attendance information based on this sheet and process. It
is the students responsibility to share this information with each teacher AND turn this information in to the
secretary. Students have two days to make up missed assignments due to excused absences. In unexcused
cases, a parent and/or administrator must be contacted to assist with work being made up. Students will have
two days to make up the work.
