Student Handbook Reminders:
Phones and Smartwatches: Per our policy, PERSONAL COMMUNICATION DEVICES (BP 5136), electronic devices can be used before or after school, but during the school hours any student with a cell phone out or smartwatch on will be asked by a teacher or administrator to turn it off and put it into their backpack.
School Times: Just a reminder we do not have staff on duty until 9:05AM when our doors open. Our dismissal starts at 4:00 and only have staff stationed outside, at our busses and car riders. If your student is a walker without, they are expected to leave school property upon dismissal.
We appreciate your support in helping our students follow the student handbook.
