SFL Endorses Honor Code

Kate Kranenberg, representing Bronxville High's Student Faculty Legislature, and Anthony Angotta, adviser, described the new student Honor Code. Developed by thirty-five elected student representatives and several faculty members, the code reinforces the importance of academic honesty and responsibility. The Code asks student to pledge their commitment to avoiding plagiarism and cheating. Disciplinary consequences for incidents of academic dishonesty will continue to apply as stated in the handbook. The Board of Education expressed their support of the proposal.
