acknowledge the borrowing of words and/or ideas, he/she may receive zero on any assignment in which
plagiarism occurs (parents contacted where applicable).

Students are expected to arrive on time for each class. Students should come to class prepared with the
proper texts, notes and equipment and completed homework/assignments.

sites. All personal electronic devices MUST be turned off in class. Summer School is not responsible for
