Important Parking Information
Cambridge Students are not allowed to park at any of the neighboring parking lots or streets. This includes Milton Police & Fire Departments, Publix shopping center, and nearby neighborhoods. Parking on campus, for Seniors and select Juniors, is ONLY available with a permit. Students are NOT permitted to park in the lot in front of the building as faculty/staff, visitors, and substitute teachers have reserved parking spaces in that area. Towing a vehicle parked without permission will be at the discretion of the property owner.
Device Return
Seniors:
Seniors will turn in their devices on May 13th in the Media Center during their 4th or 5th period lunch. Seniors who have AP exams or need devices for recovery will turn in their device on May 14th, 15th, or 16th to allow them use for academic purposes.
Seniors who do not turn in their device by May 16th will be subject to device fines and will not receive their graduation tickets until all fines have been paid or school property returned.
Underclassman:
All 9 – 11 grade students will return their school-issued devices on May 15th through their English classes. The only exceptions for device return will be for student who need their device for recovery, making up work, or AP exams; students in those situations will return their device to the Media Center by May 22nd. Students who do not turn in their device are subject to device fines. The district is taking over the device fine process and this could result in a referral to collections if not paid before the end of the school year.
At this time, it is unclear as to whether students taking summer classes will be allowed to keep their devices. We reserve the right to amend the plan above, as needed, for possible summer school needs.
