ELECTRONIC POLICY

Schools can regulate the possession and use of electronic signaling devices.

• Students may use electronics before school, during passing periods, at lunch, and after school.
• During class periods, students may use electronics ONLY WITH TEACHER/DEPARTMENT PERMISSION OTHERWISE THEY MAY NOT BE USED (including talking, listening, ringing, text messaging, checking the time, taking pictures, etc.).
• If the department/classroom policy is that electronics may not be used, then the electronic device must be powered off during class time. Phones may not be on, ring, or vibrate during the class period. The discipline matrix for violations of this policy will be as follows:
  1st Violation
  Confiscate the electronics and return phone to a parent only.
  2nd Violation
  Confiscate the electronics, assign 2 hours of detention, return phone to a parent only.
  3rd Violation
  Confiscate the electronics, suspension for defiance, return phone to a parent

The Media Center allows students to use cell phones to text, or in music mode with headsets. Students may not conduct conversations on the phone while in the Media Center. Students may listen to music on iPods or other music players and the volume must be turned down so the sounds are not heard by others.

If you have any questions, then please contact an administrator.
