5.1 Attendance

Regular attendance in any learning environment is vital to school success. Students who do not participate in their online course regularly will diminish their learning experience. Students are expected to log in on a daily basis, Monday through Friday.  Accommodations may be made for special circumstances that may occur.

5.4 Plagiarism

Plagiarism occurs when a student presents another person’s work as the student’s own. This is not acceptable at Virtual High School. The Virtual High School Plagiarism Policy is designed to teach the student to identify plagiarism, to distinguish between the two types of plagiarism, to identify strategies to avoid plagiarism, to practice proper paraphrasing and to explain the consequences of plagiarism by the student. VHS teachers have access to software which detects plagiarism. Commercial search engines are often very good at detecting work copied from material available online. Teachers have experience and can often spot when writing does not come from the student.

5.5 Academic Integrity

Virtual High School is committed to ensuring the integrity and validity of student achievement within its courses by promoting academic honesty among its students. Students are responsible for upholding integrity and will be held accountable for the quality of their work and actions. VHS takes preventative measures to reduce the incidence of academic dishonesty among its students. VHS may review any work or correspondence submitted by a student to determine its authenticity and legitimacy.

Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Students who violate the academic integrity of VHS will be subject to discipline in accordance with this policy. Academic dishonesty consists of any deliberate attempt to falsify, fabricate or otherwise tamper with data information, records, or any other material that is relevant to the student’s participation within any course. Academic offenses include, but are not limited to:

1. Cheating or other forms of academic dishonesty intended to gain unfair academic advantage;
2. Distributing or receiving answers or other information by means other than those expressly permitted by the teacher as part of any assignment, test or the
3. Copying answers, or other information (or allowing others to do so) during any assignment, quiz or the final examination in which a student is not permitted to work jointly with others;
4. Submitting academic work for assessment that was purchased or acquired from another source;
5. Assuming another individual’s identity or allowing another person to do so on the student’s behalf for the purpose of fulfilling any academic requirement or in any way enhancing the student’s grade or academic standing;
6. Using any device, implement, or other form of study aid during the final examination without permission, or as explicitly stated within a student’s Individual Education Plan (IEP);
7.  Allowing another individual to access course content, a quiz, unit test or final exam at any time while the student is completing an assessment;
8. Accessing course content or external content during the final exam.
