Cell Phone Policy

During school hours, students must keep the phone in the locker/cubby or backpack and have it turned off. If a parent needs to contact their child or a child needs to contact a parent, that communication must go through the school and in most cases the main office.

Students may have personal electronic devices on school property but may not use them during instructional time, including in classrooms, hallways, during lessons, recess/lunch or other learning environments.
Use that violates the Acceptable Use Policy, such as taking unapproved photos, recordings, non-academic social networking, texting, or accessing inappropriate content, is strictly prohibited at all times.

Students are not to operate any personal electronic devices between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM without staff permission.
First offense: Device confiscated and held in the office until the end of the day.
Additional offenses: Parents pick up devices from the office after school.
Electronic devices (Phones, tablets, smart watches, etc.) can be used as "technology" for instructional purposes as determined by the classroom teacher.

Cellular telephones may be possessed, but not visible or audible, bell to bell, except for teacher-defined instructional purposes and/or medical reasons.
Cellphones must be stored in the provided cell phone storage area in the classroom.
Lunch time is not considered instructional time.
First offense: The device is confiscated, held in the office until the end of the day, and returned to the student.
Additional offenses: The phone is held in the office until the end of the day, returned to the student, and a parent/student/administrative meeting is held to discuss the matter.
