Integrity and Honor at BCHS

Academic integrity is a commitment, even in the face of adversity, to the five basic values: Honesty, Trust, Fairness, Respect, and Responsibility. Academic communities are able to translate ideals into action by following these principles of behavior. The search for truth and knowledge in an academic community of integrity is advanced by requiring intellectual and personal honesty in learning, teaching, research, and service.
