IKAA - Academic Honesty

The Kearsarge Regional School district requires academic integrity of its professional employees and its students.

Plagiarism is a very serious breach of academic integrity. Kearsarge Regional School District does not tolerate plagiarism or cheating and teaches students how to avoid it. All work is expected to be a student’s own. A student may get ideas from a source other than him/herself but must identify that source as part of any written assignment (e.g. in a bibliography or acknowledgment). When quoting in writing, the source must be referenced accordingly. Original thinking is encouraged. Copying of another’s work or answers is not permissible. Regulations will be developed to prescribe uniform consequences for violations at each different level.
