MLA CITATIONS

Across our middle schools and high schools, we use a citation style to give credit to sources used in student work called the Modern Language Association (MLA). 

The MLA has developed a style guide for academic writing where students will learn to cite source materials such as reading passages, images, videos, and interviews.   

If a writer fails to give proper credit to a source, they have committed plagiarism.  This means they have copied someone else's work without their permission.
