Department Policies

Plagiarism

The English Department's Plagiarism Policy is an extension of the Academic Dishonesty policy outlined in the ERHS Student Handbook. The full department policy can be viewed here.

Below is an excerpt from the ERHS Student Handbook. See the full handbook here.

The English Department adheres to the Honor Code. To ensure students are doing their own work, teachers use Turnitin.com to check for plagiarism. In the event that a student is caught plagiarizing, the consequences described in the Honor Code will be followed.Â
