Cellular phones and watches
Teachers: FYI and this blurb will be a part of the December Dolphin Dispatch.
Just a friendly reminder that “smart” watches are treated just like cellular phones here at school and on our busses before and after school or during field trips. They are to be used only outside of school hours. Thank you for your support and cooperation in this important policy. Please refer to the Student Handbook at www.uticak12.org/handbook (page 15 numbers 14 and 15 specifically)
From the district

All entries are due by Friday, December 6, 2019.
