CELL PHONE POLICY

Dear Parents,

  With a doubt, cellular phones and other electronic devices can be enormously useful tools to further your child’s education. This is especially true when appropriately used and supervised. However when abused, cellphones and other electronic devices may form an unnecessary distraction and impediment to your child's learning as well as a significant threat to the safety and privacy of others. As such, at school these devices may only be used at a teacher's discretion. 

As a result of the abuses in the recent past, we have implemented a ban on cell phones, mp3 players and iPods during school hours. They may not be used nor may they be visible at anytime.

This policy is designed to protect the educational program of all students but not to limit the home/school communications.  In most cases, a student may be given permission to use an administrative office telephone to contact a parent/guardian, and in the case of an emergency, a student may be called out of class to receive a telephone call from parents/guardians. 

No image of any student may be reproduced by means of pictures, video, or any other electronic means unless the teacher has gained permission from the parent and respective student.

Students bringing cellular telephones or electronic devices to school do so at their own risk.  We will not assume any liability for any lost, stolen or damaged cellular telephone and/or any other electronic devices either in school or in their possession.

In summary:

• Cell phones/electronic devices are to be deactivated during school instructional hours.

• Emergency calls to parents should be made through the school office.

• Cell phones/electronic devices will be confiscated upon use.

• Students must have the permission of the teacher to use the approved device at a specific time.

Thanks,

M. Babb
