As we come back from break we wanted to remind students and families of the Chilton Cell Phone/Electronic Devices policy.

Page 14 in the Handbook:

We recognize that cell phones and electronics have become a common tool for communication. However, they can also become a major distraction to the learning environment and are vulnerable to theft.

Students are allowed to carry cell phones and electronics to school. However, devices (including headphones) must be silenced and stored in the students’ backpack prior to entering the classroom.

Devices are to be in silent mode and in the students’ backpack during class hours, including time out of the classroom on a hall pass, and during all school and State tests.

• Students will not be allowed to use devices during class time

• Projection of personal media either through a portable speaker or loud volume is prohibited.

• Students are allowed to use cell phones and electronics before and after school, during passing periods and during their lunch period.

The school accepts no responsibility for lost or stolen cell phones or electronics.

Any violation of the cell phone/electronic device policy could result in:

• A classroom or office referral for technology violation

• Confiscation of cell phone or electronic device until end of day and/or parent retrieves item from school office.

Administration reserves the right to decide the appropriateness of cell phone and electronics use on campus and to change the cell phone/electronics policy and privileges on a case by case basis due to any misuse of devices.

Has your student lost their student ID card? Well… This week replacement cards are now available for only $2 in the office. That is a 60% discount off the normal price! Please see Mrs. McCall in the main office to get your new ID. Remember, ID cards are needed to get into the library during lunch, get playground equipment, purchase dance tickets, and much more!

-Please follow all traffic and parking laws.

-Please do not park in front of other's driveways, garages, or designated no parking areas around the campus (including the bus loop) and surrounding neighborhood.

-Please make sure to obey instructions from the Crossing Guards (California Vehicle Code 2815).

We are now well into the school year, and we wanted to make you aware that some families may be receiving invoices for damages to a Chromebook that was checked out to your student. Students are made aware during check out that they must notify the librarian, or their teacher immediately of any damage to the Chromebook. If they do not, they accept full responsibility for any damage that is done to the Chromebook throughout the year. Please speak with your student regarding these invoices. Invoice amounts will vary depending on the damage that is done to the Chromebook. Payments can be made at the Chilton front office and can be cash or check.

Chilton's January Core Value is Kindness. At Chilton:

We believe that demonstrating generosity and friendliness is not merely a state of mind or an attitude; it is an intentional activity that requires directed effort and is a learned skill.

Talk with your child about what being KIND means to your family!
