Academic
Integrity Policy
As
a Catholic co-educational high school committed to Christian values
and academic excellence, we believe that success is grounded in
personal and academic integrity. Honesty, trust, fairness, respect
and responsibility are the foundations of academic and personal
integrity for all members of the Cretin-Derham Hall community.
Our
duties include modeling, encouraging and supporting academic integrity
in one another by treating all individuals, ideas, environments,
and property with respect, courtesy, and dignity. Thus, we uniformly
deplore cheating, lying, fraud, misrepresentation, plagiarism,
copying other students' work, and other dishonest behaviors that
jeopardize the rights, welfare and integrity of Cretin-Derham
Hall.
Consequences:
These consequences are not limited to cheating in one
class; they are cumulative.

Teacher will call parents and the Dean of Students will be notified.
The Dean of Students will be responsible for assigning additional
consequences.
Second

consequences which may include loss of credit for the class, counseling,
social probation or a recommendation for a Board of Review.
