Student Work Expectations

All work assigned is to be completed by the student.  Students are expected to do their own work. Students are encouraged to use resources to assist them in completing assigned work, however copying other people's work and or answer keys found online will not earn any credit, and is in violation of  Lake Placid Middle and High School Student Code of Conduct printed in the handbook, see below.

PLAGIARISM:
