Students are responsible for completing coursework on their own merits demonstrating honesty, discipline, and integrity. Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, copying work from another student, allowing another student to copy work, or copying from a textbook or on-line source. When appropriate, students may reference sources using proper citations following MLA format as learned in ELA courses throughout middle school. Cases of academic dishonesty will be reported to parents, school counselor, and administration and will be handled following the guidelines outlined in the BHMS Student Code of Conduct.
