Schools in the Pools
Huge Success
Our Freeman Bear Second graders had a wonderful week of swimming with the Schools in the Pools program. They swam at the Earl Jackson Pool with instructors from the NSEA Swim Foundation and made so much progress. Families, please check your child's new bag from Schools in the Pools for their certificates, prizes, and a coupon to swim at the Earl Jackson Pool for free!
Cell Phones: Away for the Day
Away for the Day
At R. Freeman Elementary School, cell phones and personal devices are expected to be away for the day.
- Students will keep personal devices turned off and put away in backpacks.
- This included phones, smart watches, tablets, laptops, headphones, earpods, and similar devices that are not school-issued.
- Students may access their personal devices before school (before they enter the building) and after announcements (2:30pm).
- Students may NOT access their personal devices during the school day (7:15am - 2:30pm).
- Parents may call the front office to leave messages for their student (910) 250-6011
- If a student needs to call home, they can use the front office phone.
How can families support in this area?
- Please support by not expecting your student to access their phone during the school day.
- Students can bring devices to school to let families know they have arrived or about after school plans. They just cannot access the device during the school day.
