HHSW Integrity Covenant
As stated in our Statement of Faith, HHSW
functions as a Christian community and should
demonstrate to members of that community and the
outside community the highest level of integrity.
Through this document, the HHSW staff hopes that
students and parents will gain a clear understanding
of how students are expected to behave regarding
integrity issues. Signing this document also gives
parents and students and the HHSW community as a
whole an opportunity to commit together to uphold
these policies.
Test Taking
As a parent, I agree to administer tests at a
time when I can observe the student throughout the
test. Students may be alone in a separate room if I
have insured that all test-taking aids have been
removed and the student does not leave the room
during the test. I will not review the test nor will
my student prior to the actual test taking session.
The student will not have access to notes, texts, or
other helps during the test unless the test
directions stipulate this is acceptable. I will give
no help during the test other than clarifying
instructions.
As a student I agree to not preview tests. I agree
not to discuss test content with fellow class members
until after the class period when all the tests are
turned in. I will not use notes, texts, or other
helps unless I am instructed to do so by my teacher.
During in-class tests I will not access and use
another student’s test answers nor will I allow
another student to access my answers.
Homework Answer Keys
As a parent, I agree to limit my student’s
access to the answer keys. Answer keys are to be used
by the parents to grade a student’s work. Parents may
choose to sit with a student and cooperatively grade
a student’s work but no answers shall be changed and
the parent should be present at all times (unless a
teacher directs a student to rework incorrect
problems, as in some of the math classes.) With the
exception of cooperative grading, I agree to prohibit
access by my student to answer keys. If required by
the teacher, my signature on the homework insures
this policy was followed.
Homework
As a student, I agree to turn in only work I
have completed without the help of other students
unless the teacher specifically allows more than one
student to complete an assignment together. I will
not: copy answers from another student, exchange or
compare answers with another student, or use answer
keys to complete or correct my work. I also agree to
follow the guidelines issued in regards to plagiarism
and cheating. I agree that all papers, reports,
charts, and other written work will be properly
credited if they are someone else’s work.
As a parent, I agree to sign or initial homework only
if it is complete and the work is that of my student.
I understand that it is my responsibility to
supervise and give the needed level of support to my
students each week to insure their work is done to
the best of their ability.
Contract for Classes
I do hereby give my word that I will come to
class with my heart and mind prepared to learn. I
will enter each class with a teachable spirit. I will
be attentive and respectful of both my teachers and
my fellow classmates. I agree to conduct myself at
all times in a manner that glorifies God and brings
honor to His name.
I agree that when I fall short of keeping this
commitment, I will receive correction with humility,
turn from my error, and prayerfully seek the Lord’s
forgiveness and help to regain my commitment.
I understand and agree that I am responsible for
completing my assignments on time and for doing them
to the best of my abilities because that is my “good
and faithful service” to the Lord.
I have read and agree to abide by the rules listed in
the HHSW Handbook.
