Academic Honor Code

We have an academic integrity policy students and parents must abide by to be enrolled in our program (please read below). Academic misconduct, in any form, is discouraged and not tolerated. Academic misconduct includes, but is not limited to:

• cheating

• plagiarism

• copying another student’s work

• allowing another student to copy your work

If academic misconduct is found, it is the school's discretion for disciplinary action.

Academic Integrity Policy:

1. I will do my own work.

2. I will not copy another person’s work, in whole or in part, and submit it as my own.

3. I will not consult unauthorized material or information during tests unless my teacher gives me permission.

4. I will not plagiarize.

5. I will not copy text, graphics, mathematics solutions, artistic layouts or presentation, or any ideas in any form from another source without proper citation.

6. I will not communicate exam information or answers during or following an exam.

7. I will not provide unwarranted access to materials or information so that credit may be wrongly claimed by others.

8. I will not turn in an original paper or project for more than one different class assignment.

9. I will not, in laboratory situations, falsify or fabricate data or observations, including computer output.

Proctor Policy

Smart Schools utilizes a proctoring agency called ProctorKey to allow students to take Prescriptive Exams, Test Outs, and Cumulative Exams at a time and place of their choosing. The proctoring agency is available 24/7 and students do not need to schedule the exams ahead of time. This is a benefit that assures compliance of academic integrity standards while minimally impacting the student or their course progress. Smart Schools incurs all costs associated with this benefit. In some situations, proctoring can be performed by approved designated agents rather than ProctorKey.
