What does THE NEW CELL PHONE POLICY mean for students at our school this year?

GRADE 6:
Students in Grade 6 may not use their cell phone or personal mobile devices (air pods, headphones and smart devices) at any time during the day, including lunch hour. They are to be turned off and stored in their bags if they bring these devices to school.

GRADE 7 - 9:

 For Grades 7-9, cell phones and personal mobile devices (air pods, headphones and smart devices) are to be completely away, turned off, and stored in lockers during all instructional time

Students in Grades 7-9 are permitted to use their personal devices during lunch

For Grades 7-9, all backpacks, school bags, coats, etc are to be stored in lockers during instructional time.

ALL STUDENTS:
Exceptions to these requirements will be to accommodate the documented individual medical condition for those students who use their phone to monitor blood sugar levels for diabetes.

At no time are cell phones permitted in washrooms and change rooms

Parents and Guardians are welcome to call the office (902-876-2026, ext 0) to pass along important messages, if necessary, during the day.
