Edgecombe Early College High School Commitment Statement As a student of Edgecombe Early College High School, I believe my goal is to achieve an Associate’ s Degree along with my high school diploma. In order to reach the highest level of success, I must accept and fully participate in every aspect of the Early College High School Design Principles. Power of Site: As a guest of the Edgecombe Community College campus, I must conduct myself in a respectful, responsible and mature manner consistent with staff expectations and behavior. • No drama/gossip • Do not abuse freedom or computer privileges • Accept responsibility for my choices • Take care of college property Teaching and Learning: As a learner, I commit to being present and prepared prior to the start of all high school and college classes. I understand cell phone use is not acceptable and I agree to keep mine on the “off mode” during all scheduled class time. I understand plagiarism, claiming other’s work/property (i.e. copy & paste) as my own, is wrong and could lead to expulsion from E.E.C.H.S. and E.C.C. I will do all work assigned to the very best of my ability. 110%--24/7! Student Support: As a student at E.E.C.H.S. I will be a part of a learning community, responsible for my own learning. I will have academic support systems (Seminar, tutoring) and affective support systems (House, clubs). These are Early College components I accept as relevant and vital for my college success. I understand attendance and participation of these components are expected. Democratic School Governance: Intentionally designed structures, House and Town Meetings, provide for everyone’s voice to be heard and respected in the decision-making process with regard to developing student activities and other policies that affect the daily life of students and faculty. I commit to prompt attendance (on time) of these structures and collaborate with my peers to strengthen our learning community. |
