Stanton Cell Phone Policy for classrooms
Due to distractions caused by cell phone use in the classroom, starting Monday, March 21, this will be the policy we will use. When students come into all classrooms including music and study hall, they will place their phone where the teacher has prepared it to be placed. Here are some other notes to the policy.
#1 Students will not be allowed to keep their phones in their bags or on their person in class or study hall. If a phone is seen, it will be taken to the office where it can be picked up at the end of the day. The 2nd time it is taken a parent will need to come to the school to pick up the phone. There will be no warnings given.
#2 If there are emergencies where communication is needed to a student, those calls can be made to the office, where the student can be called in with their phone to take any calls and information.
#3 Students can still use their phones between classes and at lunch.
#4 We do not encourage students to leave their phones in their locker. Students can leave their phones in the main office if they like. Students are not to check out of class to go to their locker to check their phone. If they are seen looking at their phone during class the phone will be taken to the office (See #1)
