Minimum School Days/Early Release

Eight minimum day/early-release days are scheduled to accommodate teacher in-service requirements.

Student Telephone Use

The office telephone is a business phone and is used by students only in the case of an emergency.  Permission from the office staff is needed to use a school phone.  The school phone is not used to make personal arrangements, such as requesting permission to go to another child’s home after school.  Students are not to use the phone to call parents to bring items they forgot at home.  Pick-ups after sports practice sessions are arranged in advance as practice generally ends at the same time each day.  Students may not use cell phones except before and after school hours (before 7:40 am and after 3:30 pm).  Cell phones may only be in the off position and secured inside a backpack or they will be confiscated. A cell phone confiscated the first time is returned to the parent with a warning; the second time it may be returned to a parent for a fee of $50 and for a 3rd confiscation, it will be returned only at the end of the school year.
