Class Expenses:

Occasional purchases of required class materials from a local copy service. A lab card must be purchased if evening access to the lab computers is desired.

Plagerism:

Any plagiarism on tests or lab work will be reported to the school disciplinary authorities and will result in a zero score for the pertinent assignment. It is encouraged for students to study together and to help each other, but each student must hand in their own work.

Lab Work and Projects:

Lab work will be done by teams of 2-4 students. All students in each group will be knowledable about all portions of the project, not just for their own part.
