Please print name: _________________________
Atlantic Coast High School is a community that is committed to integrity and excellence in academics and in personal
accountability. Because of this commitment, it is imperative that all members of the Atlantic Coast High School
community embody personal honor, personal integrity, and personal responsibility. Therefore, it is expected that each
person at Atlantic Coast High School will behave in an honorable way and refrain from the following:
Plagiarism and copying: Plagiarism is the use of words, ideas, and/or information that is not your own. Copying
includes using another person’s work as your own. Copying is not limited to “word for word” action but can apply to
reading another person’s idea and paraphrasing his or her idea as your own, without giving credit to the author. Copying
applies not only to formal assessments but also to homework and in-class work. NO STUDENT MAY EVER HAVE
CUSTODY OR POSSESSION OF ANOTHER STUDENT’S NOTEBOOK FOR ANY REASON. THE MASTER
NOTEBOOK EXISTS FOR ABSENT STUDENTS TO USE UPON THEIR RETURN FROM SCHOOL.
Cheating: Numerous behaviors will be considered cheating. Some of these areas include, but are not limited to, the
following: using cheat sheets; using former students’ notebooks; using internet resources without citing them as
appropriate sources; misrepresenting something as being real and actual; using cell phones to create images of tests,
quizzes, and/or other assignments; and text messaging with other students regarding a test or quiz. The use of technology
in cheating can occur on small assignments such as homework assignments as well as on more formal tests, essays, and
projects. Students can be guilty of cheating if they give out or are in receipt of the material.
Discussions of material: Discussions of tests and quizzes with other students when it is not specifically allowed by the
teacher and when it is intended to give an unfair advantage to that student are prohibited under the Atlantic Coast High
School Honor Code.
Lying and fraudulent behavior: Lying and fraudulent behavior occurs when one intentionally deceives another through
words, actions, or omissions.
Integrity of work: All work must be completed by that individual to whom it was assigned. A parent, friend, or tutor
cannot complete the work for the student. The work or the project must be under the “direct control” of the student and
not under the control of the parent, friend, or tutor. Inappropriate help occurs when suggestions and/or support provided
exceeds the help and guidance a teacher might give in class or during a tutorial session. Students are not to request that
class policies be altered for their assignment unless there are extenuating circumstances such as a serious illness
documented by a doctor or a family emergency documented by a parent.
I have read and understand Mrs. Curran’s academic integrity policy:
