Please contact the front office should you have any questions about this procedure. (Your student will be given numerous assignments
in this class dealing with this website. Therefore, they will absolutely know their up-to-the-minute grades and attendance in all of their

Safety: A safe and comfortable work environment is provided for all students. HOWEVER, the students MUST follow these rules. Students are
prohibited from touching any cords in the classroom except the keyboard and mouse cords. Do not put a flash drive, disk, etc. in the
computer without permission from your teacher. Bags, purses, books, cell phones, iPads, iPods, etc. must be placed under the students
chair at all times. We cannot have these items in your lap, on the tables, in the aisles, or between the chairs.
Non-Traditional Students: We believe all students can be successful in our courses regardless of gender, ethnicity, or physical capabilities.
CLASSROOM RULES AND SAFETY PROCEDURES are on the other green sheet THAT YOUR STUDENT SHOULD HAVE GIVEN YOU.
Make-Up Work: After an absence, it is the students responsibility to inquire about work missed. Please review your ICampus grades in all six
classes every day in order to keep up with your missing work and your graded assignments. Be sure to collect any handouts and notes that were
distributed.
ABSOLUTELY NO GUM, FOOD, DRINK, ETC. WILL BE PERMITTED IN THE COMPUTER LAB
TECHNOLOGY USE: Technology is an important instructional resource. The use of computers is a privilege, not a right. Failure to follow the
guidelines will result in disciplinary actions, which may include restricted or denied access to school computers. Students will use technology for
educational purposes only. Any student found intentionally, damaging and/or vandalizing any hardware or software will be disciplined for
school property abuse.
Software: Students will observe software copyright laws and fair use guidelines. They will not be permitted to copy school software or bring
software from home to install on the school computers.
On-line Services: Students will be monitored and will be held responsible for information viewed, received, and sent when using
telecommunications software or the internet to link to services outside the school. The use of online services will be restricted to school-related
projects. Downloading of information from the Internet or electronic databases may only be performed with faculty permission. Please review the
Contract regarding the Use of the Internet for the Walton County School system in the Student Agenda (Parent signature required).
-Students will respect the personal data of others, including peers, teachers and administrators. Students will not share passwords to their files or
try to break desktop or network security of any machine in the building. Report needed repairs to the teacher promptly. Any computer or printer
that is in need of repair because of abuse will be repaired at the students expense. Because security is so important in a network environment,
students will be sent IMMEDIATELY for disciplinary action and/or PERMANENT REMOVAL FROM CLASS if an attempt to enter the system is
made. Tampering with the network is a criminal offense and is subject to criminal prosecution.
Cheating: Cheating is a VERY SERIOUS issue and will be treated as such. According to the Youth Middle School rules, cheating may be
defined as giving or receiving information from another source or person during independent class activity, quiz, test, exam, homework or any other
activity where the student is expected to produce his/her own work. If found cheating, you AND the other student will receive a 0 on the
assignment(s), you will receive a 0 on your CTAE foundation grade, your parent will be contacted, and you will be given detention. If found
guilty of cheating or plagiarism a second time he/she will receive a discipline referral and more serious action will be taken by the administration.
