I agree to observe the Acceptable Use Policy within the Student Handbook. During this course, we will
be using digital cameras and learning how to place these pictures in documents. Many students also use
their own pictures as images on their school web sites. These student pictures are copied to their
network files where they may access them or display them on a Web page. According to this policy, any
time a student has his/her picture placed in the network or on our Website, permission must be granted
by a parent/guardian. Your signature below indicates that you acknowledge this.

Equipment Vandalism Policy
Computer equipment is very expensive, and is needed by many students each day. A machine
that is broken for any reason can cause students not to receive the instruction they need and
deserve.
Any student who intentionally vandalizes a piece of equipment will be disciplined by their
Principal (Saturday detention or Suspension is likely). The second offense will result in the
student being removed from the course with a failing grade. The cost of any damages will be
reimbursed to the district, by the student or his parent(s).
Examples of Equipment Vandalism include, but are not limited to:
 switching keyboard keys
 inserting foreign objects into the disk drive
 writing on equipment
 intentional introduction of a computer virus
 attempts to destroy, or destroying files
 attempts to illegally access the network, and
 changing software settings
To protect yourself against accusations of vandalism, notify your teacher immediately of any
suspected problems.

Plagiarism Policy
Plagiarism is a very serious academic offense. Plagiarism is defined as copying or using the
work of others, and representing that work as your own work. Plagiarism is cheating!
Any student who plagiarizes will receive an automatic zero on the assignment he/she plagiarizes.
If this violation of academic standards and honesty occurs a second time, the student will receive
an automatic zero on the assignment he/she plagiarizes and a disciplinary referral. If this
violation occurs a third time, the student will automatically receive a failing grade for the
marking period. If this violation occurs a fourth time, the student will automatically receive a
failing grade for the class. Any instances of plagiarism will result in the student’s parents being
notified.
Computers present a unique problem related to plagiarism. Students who attempt to copy the
work of another via e-mail or a computer storage medium will be considered to have plagiarized
the work of another.
Students are not generally permitted to work on computer assignments at home, because of the
potential for plagiarism.
Homework Policy

If a student anticipates an upcoming absence, they should notify their teacher immediately
It is the student’s responsibility to make up work within the number of days they were
absent, or receive a zero for those assignments unless other arrangements are made with the
instructor.
