CELL PHONES

Haverford School District supports the use of the computers, Internet and other network resources in the district's instructional and operational programs in order to facilitate learning, teaching and daily operations, and provides students, staff and other authorized individuals with conditional access to the district's computers, electronic communication systems and network, which includes Internet access.

In light of Board Policy 815: Acceptable Use of Internet, Computers, and Network Resources, and our district focus on Social/Emotional Wellness, Haverford High School strives to better support students regarding responsible use of personal devices. This includes understanding when and how to appropriately use technology in our ever-evolving, interconnected world, in order to be college and career ready. We understand that personal devices such as cell phones, smart watches, headphones/earbuds, etc., can cause an unnecessary distraction in the school environment and may contribute negatively to the health of our students.

Students are permitted to bring personal electronic devices to school. However, all devices must be silenced or turned off and remain off of a student’s person during classroom instruction as directed by their teachers. Teachers or staff members may require students to store phones in a designated location during class. Failure to follow these rules will result in disciplinary action including, but not limited to, confiscation of the device. Haverford High School is not responsible for lost personal electronic devices.

We understand that many families rely on the use of communication for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, family emergencies. Should students need to contact their parent(s)/guardian(s) during the instructional day, there is a phone available in the main office. Families should contact their students via the main office phone (610-853-5900 x2000) to avoid disruption and maintain an orderly school environment.

During times that students are permitted to use personal electronic devices (i.e. during lunch or in between classes), an orderly school environment, conducive to academic instruction, must be maintained in accordance with Board Policy 815: Acceptable Use of Internet, Computers and Network Resources.

BULLYING & CYBERBULLYING

Students who believe they or others have been bullied as defined by Board Policy 249: Bullying/Cyberbullying and Board Policy 249-AR: Bullying/Cyberbullying should promptly report such incidents to administration. All reports will be promptly investigated, and corrective action/school-based discipline shall be taken/imposed in accordance with Board Policy when allegations are verified.
