Honor Council is a student-led group designed to uphold our Code of Conduct: Honor, Respect, Integrity. The group is comprised of an elected, representative body of students whose purpose is to sit in judgment of their peers in matters involving honor code violations. The Council's job in these situations is to make sure the accused student has a fair, just, and proper hearing and then to determine guilt or innocence. In cases of guilt it is the job of the Council to issue a recommendation in accordance with the disciplinary policy of the school. |
