AVOIDING PLAGIARISM

Never take someone else's work and claim it as your own.  Understanding citations (information above) and how to paraphrase are crucial in avoiding plagiarism.  As always, if you are stuck, see your teacher for help.  Never resort to stealing another's work.

Please see our school's plagiarism policy by reading the Academic Integrity section on page 15 of the Parent/Student Handbook.
