Dear Mrs. Adams:

Every year I have the wonderful opportunity to write a research paper for English.  Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a key American President of the 20^th Century, will be the focus of my upcoming paper.  Roosevelt’s political charisma and vision for the future sustained America through the most severe economic depression in US history and led the country victoriously through World War II.

I understand that the research paper is to be my own personal work.  Plagiarism is the action of using, without due acknowledgement, the thoughts, scholarship, or inventions of another person.  I agree to provide enough information in my paper so that the reader can identify and refer to all the sources I have used in writing my research paper.  I will turn in photocopies of all sources.  I understand that all word-for-word quotations, any summaries, and any borrowed ideas that are paraphrased or mentioned must have cited sources.  I promise not to rely on factual material gathered by any individual other than myself.  I understand that plagiarism or turning in another person’s work at Vestavia Hills High School will result in a zero for the assignment with no make-up opportunities, and may result in disciplinary action by the school.

I also realize that failure to turn in this school-required research paper will result in my automatic enrollment in summer school where I will write a research paper before earning any credit for English this year.

Sincerely,

Joey M. Smoey
