Cell Phones

The use/possession of cell phones is discouraged in school. Phones are available for student use in the office. Cell phones may not be visible in the classrooms; they may not be used in the classrooms; they may not disrupt the classroom. In some cases, students may use their cellphones in the cafeteria during lunch and before or after instructional hours. Students must continue to adhere to our code of conduct during such instances.

No photos or videos may not be taken in school, on school grounds, or on buses.

Students will be asked to put their phones or electronic devices away if seen in the hallways and classrooms, they will be confiscated and returned as outlined in the discipline philosophy and procedures  if they refuse to comply.

Students are strongly encouraged to use the phone in the main office or, in case of illness, the nurse's phone. The school will not be responsible for the damage, loss or theft of cell phones.
