    41. Textbooks and Student Materials

    Students are required to buy a workbook for use with the “Modern Metalworking” textbook. Cost for the book is $15.00. There is also a $25.00 lab material fee. Payment is due the first day of school. Cash or one check for $40.00 made out to Lancaster County Career and Technology Center will be accepted.

    42. Financial Aid

    Need based scholarships are available through the LCCT Foundation for up to $200 to cover the cost of uniforms and book. See a guidance counselor for an application.

    43. Course Work

    45. Knowledge- 1/3 of final grade

    Tests & quizzes Workbook and other written assignments. Homework

    46. Skill- 1/3 of final grade

    Participation in lab work Work quality Work quantity

    47. Work Ethic- 1/3 of final grade

    Work ethic skills are behaviors and attitudes that will help students get a job and keep it. The work ethic grade will be determined by evaluating the behavior of students in the following areas.

    48. Work Ethic Skills

    Initiative/Effort Attitude towards learning Quantity of work Cooperation Respect toward others Compliance with rules and regulations Uniform Attendance Safety Proper use of tools and equipment Work habits Responsibility

    49. Guidance and Counseling
