Pagers and cell phones will be turned off or set to vibrate mode during class. Please show courtesy to the class by restricting conversation to in-class topics, and raise your hand to gain attention when asking a question or raising a point of discussion.

Lab Equipment:
Students are expected to respect the equipment in the lab and make the learning environment relaxed and comfortable for all. Much of the equipment in the lab is in for servicing by customers and does not belong to the school. Students are not to use or work on any equipment without first checking with the instructor.

Academic Honesty:
The high school experience is founded on the concepts of honesty and integrity. Dishonesty, cheating, plagiarism, or knowingly furnishing false information to the school are regarded as particularly serious offenses. Cases of dishonesty will be handled by levying heavy penalties. In flagrant cases the penalty may be dismissal from school after proper due process proceedings.

Research and Communication:


Communication skills, both oral and written, are a widely recognized issue in need of improvement in the field of information technology. Many proficient technicians have limited skills communicating with co-workers and endusers. Our goal is to address this issue by having students perform research and present findings as part of the class.
