Dear SHDHS parents and students,
 
St. Henry District High School strives to provide a learning environment where all participants pursue academic integrity that reflects the school's core values in keeping with the Catholic Faith. Students are therefore expected to act with honesty and integrity in their pursuit of academic excellence. All offenses against academic honesty will be taken seriously.
 

• Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, the following:
• Cheating on an assignment, examination, or test; for example, by copying from another's work or using unauthorized materials before or during the test, including the use of electronic devices;
• Plagiarism, which represents the work of another as one's own work, whether published or not, without acknowledging the source;
• Participation in the academic dishonesty of another student, even though one's own work is not directly affected;
• Compromising the security of the shdhs.org domain, including the deliberate bypassing of the firewall or content filtering system and attempting to remove a Chromebook from the school's Google Management System.

 
As technology evolves, new software and services continuously become available to the general public. However, not all of these tools are conducive to an environment rooted in academic integrity. Many third-party websites and apps can be used to bypass domain restrictions and will not be permitted on student devices while enrolled at SHDHS. The Technology Department, with the support of administrators, will determine in real-time whether students can use various new tools. It is the policy of SHDHS that any student who uses technology in a prohibited manner, as laid out in the Responsible Use Policy (RUP), will be held accountable. All forms of academic dishonesty and inappropriate use of technology are serious offenses that undermine the school's learning process and values.

If you have questions or concerns about this policy, don't hesitate to contact the IT Department Director, Jorge Carbwood, at jcarbwood@shdhs.org.
