Academic Integrity
At Pius XI High School, academic integrity is a building block of our community. In all actions – in the classroom, as well as in summer programs, athletics, or co-curricular – students are held to a standard of maturity and responsibility. As a community we value academic honesty and respect. Dishonesty compromises academic and moral integrity and will be met with serious consequences. Academic departments or individual teachers may elaborate more specific criteria and consequences regarding academic integrity.
Academic dishonesty includes—but is not limited to—any type of cheating, such as plagiarizing, copying another student’s work, letting someone copy your work, or using resources like calculators, notebooks or cell phones when not allowed.
Consequences may include—but are not limited to—a failing grade, losing privileges like an Honor Schedule, serving detention, or being disbarred from National Honor Society. In instances of academic dishonesty, a teacher may communicate with a student’s parents, a department chair and the administration.
