Student Academic Code

Divine Child High School is an academic and Catholic institution that values the high standards of character and personal integrity. The Divine Child High School community promotes the social values of respect, truth and responsibility. Therefore it is in violation of one's personal integrity and Christian values to submit work that is not one's own; claim the thoughts or works of another as one's own; cheat, lie or steal the ideas or property of others; or condone another's breach of this honor code.

Violations of the Honor Code are identified as (but not limited to):

1. Copying from another student's quiz/test/exam
2. Giving another student answers during a quiz/test/exam or quiz/exam questions in advance (without teacher's permission)
3. Copying/loaning from another when assigned as independent work for credit
4. Copying materials without footnotes or other proper documentation
5. Using notes or books during a quiz/test/exam without permission of the teacher
6. Theft of a quiz, test, or exam or receiving a stolen quiz, test or exam
7. Sabotage of someone else's work in a computer lab, science lab, etc.

Each honor code violation will be reviewed on a case by case basis by the teacher and if necessary the Administration. However, please be aware that honor code violations here at DCHS are considered extremely serious, and the consequences will reflect this ethic.
