Cell Phone Policy Reminder
In the first two months of school we have seen a drastic increase in student engagement in the classrooms. Students have spoken on how they are more focused in class and how they are less distracted by their cell phones. We ask that families continue to encourage their child to not be using their cell phones in the classroom setting.
