This year, the School Board will engage the school district community to help inform the creation of a student cell phone use policy. A cell phone advisory group of students, parents and teachers is working collaboratively with administration to develop recommendations for cell phone use by educational level (elementary school, middle school, high school). These recommendations will be provided to the School Board which will develop a cell phone policy in compliance with new legislation. A survey for parents, secondary students and staff will be shared in the coming weeks, and community engagement sessions will be hosted as well. Learn more at mvpschools.org/cellphones.

Cell Phones/Smart Watches/Cellular Devices Reminder
It is the school’s expectation that cell phones remain in the student’s backpack throughout the day, including while on the bus. If a student brings a device and it becomes a distraction to their learning or the learning of others, or if it impacts the security or privacy of students, the following will occur:
A parent/guardian will be notified.
The device may be held in the main office until the end of the day.
Devices should not be used as a method of communication during the school day. Necessary communication between home and school, and a student and family, should be directed to the front office or the classroom teacher. As with anything of value, the school is not liable for theft or damage.
Non-Academic Personal Property:
Students should not bring personal items such as toys, card collections, or any similar items to school. These items may be misplaced or stolen and can be a disruption to learning. If a teacher wishes to have students bring such items to school for a special event, parents will be notified. We appreciate your support.
Did you reply ‘STOP’ to a text message?
Did we send you one-too-many text messages that caused you to reply ‘STOP,’ in frustration? If so, please know that replying ‘STOP’ to a single text message automatically unsubscribes you from receiving all future text messages from any school or District office. Please consider resubscribing so you can receive future emergency notifications, and we’ll do our best to limit our text messages to critically urgent information that is as targeted as possible. To resubscribe, simply call or email any school main office and ask to be resubscribed to all text messages.
Students Can Now Receive Text Alerts
Parents, you can now add your child's cell phone number to ParentVUE so they can receive text messages and robo-calls about school closings, significantly delayed school buses, emergencies and other alerts.
