Cell Phones and Other Electronic Equipment
Student possession and use of cellular phones, pagers, and other electronic signaling devices on school grounds, at school-sponsored activities, and while under the supervision and control of school District employees is a privilege which will be permitted only under the circumstances described herein. At no time will any student operate a cell phone or other electronic signaling device with video or photographic capabilities in a locker room, bathroom, or other location where such operation may violate the privacy right of another person. Students may use cellular phones, pagers, and other electronic signaling devices on campus before school begins and after school ends or as determined by school procedures. Schools may regulate the use of cell phones by parents and other adults while they are on school property. In special circumstances, the building principals may authorize use of cell phones or other electronic signaling devices by students. Specific building regulations and procedures shall be published annually in student handbooks. The District is not responsible for lost or stolen devices.
We recognize that there are applications of electronic signaling devices that can enhance learning in the classroom. However, unauthorized use of such devices disrupts the instructional program and distracts from the learning environment. Therefore, unauthorized use is grounds for confiscation of the device by school officials, including classroom teachers and supervisory aides. Confiscated devices will be returned to the parent or guardian. Unauthorized use of such devices may result in disciplinary action.
