I do not take cheating lightly. For you to truly understand this class and know how to apply the information you need to do your own work. Without this, passing the VOCATS will be very difficult and my own gauge of your need for help in areas will be off. I will not tolerate cheating. If I find homework has been copied or you are cheating off of someone or helping someone to cheat I will immediately give two ASDs, and a write up which goes into your permanent file and parents will be contacted. This goes for the one who is copying and the one who is helping. This is school policy. Don’t put yourself in a position that may reflect a cheating circumstance. Grades: The grade break down is shown above. Exams are any tests or other projects I designate as an exam grade. Be dutiful in studying for exams, using your notes and book as it will make up the majority of your grade. Quizzes will be 20%. Presentations/Projects are any in class work and homework that is done on a regular basis. Class assignments, homework, and participation are weighted at 10%. I look forward to an exciting year.
