*Policy Reminder:  Use of personal electronic devices, such as cell phones, laptops, iPods, SMART watches is not permitted during school hours and during detention, unless under the direct instruction of a teacher or an IEP accommodation is being met and the device is being used for instructional purposes. Students bringing such devices to school for the above stated purposes do so at their own risk, and the school is not responsible for attempting to retrieve lost or stolen property.  We ask that SMART watches, just like cell phones, be kept in backpacks during the day.
