The cheating policy of Room 102 will only be of a two tier orientation. If a student is suspected to be cheating, via the copying of another student’s homework and/or problems, student will receive a verbal warning (depending on assignment) to be documented by the teacher. On a second offense, a zero is earned and student will be directed to the principal as directed in the District Wide Cheating Policy. If student is found to be copying another student’s quiz, test and/or a major project, they will receive a zero for that assignment and report to the principal as directed in the District Wide Cheating Policy.
District 547 Policy
It is the belief of District 547 that all students can be successful. It is also the belief of District 547 that students should attain that success without cheating. District 547 understands that the pressure to cheat and the pressure to allow cheating can sometimes be very compelling, but it is always wrong. With much discussion and thought, District 547 has adopted a three tier cheating policy (above and beyond each teacher’s specific cheating policy and consequences). Consequences shall be cumulative beginning with seventh grade and continuing through the eighth grade or ninth grade through twelfth grade, whichever is applicable, of the student’s attendance at Parkers Prairie.
