 * POLICY ON PUBLISHING STUDENT WORK **

Rock Hill Schools believes that there is considerable educational merit in allowing students to publish their work in schools, the local community, and electronically worldwide. This practice is both a powerful student motivator as well as an authentic assessment of student work.
