HONOR PLEDGE
“On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment.”
HONOR COUNCIL
Thirteen student members serve on the RHHS Honor Council, dedicated to promoting and upholding integrity among the student body. The HC is responsible for three main objectives:
1) Provide guidance and assign consequences to students who have violated RH Academic Integrity Policy
2) Develop educational tools that will foster academic integrity
3) Strategically develop and implement RHHS academic integrity standards
The Honor Council is a student-to-student organization, created to improve the academic integrity environment through a grassroots effort. Those who commit a Level I violation may appear before the student HC.
