The student will receive a zero (0) for the assignment and parent conference with the administrator or designee.

Plagiarism - Long Branch High School does not tolerate plagiarism in any form. It is the responsibility of the teacher to establish a classroom policy at the beginning of each course. The teacher will provide the students with written information regarding this policy. In addition the following school-wide guidelines on plagiarism are in effect:

Plagiarism the Internet and Electronic SourcesThe Internet has become a more popular source of information for student papers, and many questions have arisen about how to avoid plagiarizing these sources. In most cases, the same rules apply as to a printed source: when a writer must refer to ideas or quote a www site, he/she must cite the source.
