PlagiarismAcademic honesty is something that Newmarket Jr/Sr High School values greatly, and the consequences for cheating can affect a student tremendously. I have attached a handout that I made about the basics of plagiarism (what it is and how to avoid it) and the student handbook for reference.

Citing in MLA formatThe plagiarism handout goes over basic MLA format, but it is important to note that Newmarket Jr/Sr High School only uses the MLA citation style. MLA style is typically used when creating in-text citations and works cited for English academic works, whereas Chicago and APA styles are used for other subjects. When I was in school, we were given a large book containing all of the rules for citing sources. I recognize that we do not still do that these days, so here are some links that I use to cite my sources and format my academic papers!
These are two automatic works cited generators that I prefer, but make sure that you click the manual entry/manual cite button (MLA8). If you simply search the text, it is not guaranteed that you will find the correct edition.
