Student Use of Electronic Devices - Smart Phones/Watches
Reminder: According to the Student Handbook '24-'25 smart phones and/or smart watches "must be kept powered-off and out-of-sight during the regular school day unless: (a) the supervising teacher grants permission; (b) use of the device is provided in a student’s individualized education program (IEP); (c) it is needed in an emergency that threatens the safety of students, staff, or other individuals".(Note: District 47 treats any electronic device with the capability to call, text, connect to the internet, or take photos as an electronic device. If a student needs to make an emergency call during the day, the student should request permission to go to the main office and use the phone. If parents need to contact their child during the day, they should call the school’s main office.)
