Course Objectives: This class covers both 10th and 11th grade high school curriculum. This is a college course as well. Successful completion of the course will result in up to six hours of college credit. Full details may be found on the syllabus below.
​
Tardy Policy:
Because students who arrive late are marked absent, they must notify the teacher of their attendance at the end of class.
Late and Make-up Policy:
A student may make up missed assignments or turn in late assignments only if the absence is excused with verifiable documentation. It is the student’s responsibility to plan with the instructor for making up the missed work.
Civility Statement:
All students are expected to be respectful of others’ opinions, ideas, time, work, and wellbeing, and to treat their classmates, instructor, and their work with the respect they would want in turn – both in the physical classroom and in the online setting. All students are expected to attend class fully prepared with appropriate materials. Any student behavior deemed disruptive by the instructor will result in expulsion from the classroom, with an absence for the day and possible disciplinary action.
​
Academic Honesty Policy:
In a university community, true knowledge can be gained only through honest means. All academic dishonesty is expressly prohibited. This policy is applicable for campus and distance learning activities. Students who violate this Academic Honesty Policy will be subject to disciplinary actions which could range from a zero on an assignment to failure of the course; repeated offenses can result in dismissal from the university. Violations include, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, the following:
