ACADEMIC HONESTY

Saint Genevieve High School demands the academic moral best from each student.  Academic dishonesty in any form is directly contrary to our philosophy and goals.  Therefore cheating or plagiarism of any kind warrants serious disciplinary repercussions.  Saint Genevieve supports the belief that academic honesty demands individual accountability with regard to the submission of student work.  Students have a moral responsibility to others and themselves to avoid cheating.  Honesty is the primary responsibility of each student.  Saint Genevieve considers cheating to be a voluntary act for which there may be reasons, but for which there is no justification.

The school will follow these steps.  However, in extremely serious cases students may be suspended, asked to withdraw, or expelled.
