Academic Dishonesty
Academic dishonesty is contrary to the philosophy of St. Vincent School. Academic Dishonesty can be a cause for suspension, probation, or dismissal from school. The school interprets cheating as follows, though not limited to the following:
Copying assignments or allowing another student to copy assignments in or out of class
Giving or receiving answers to quizzes, tests and examinations
Looking at another’s paper or allowing another to look at one’s paper
Plagiarism
Doing another person’s work or allowing another to do one’s work
When a student is involved in a cheating incident, the teacher takes the following actions:
Assigns a failing grade to the test, quiz, or assignment
Calls parents
Issues a conduct referral
Hands the matter over to the principal
