• Electronic Devices

    Cell phones, headphones, and other electronic devices are strictly prohibited. Devices, if brought on campus, should be powered off and stowed when in “No Cell Phone Zones”. Students may use the above devices in the mornings before morning dismissal and after HR dismissal without violating CCSD Code of Conduct.  If devices are being used for educational purposes and are requested by the teacher, the principal may choose to temporarily approve such devices in advance for specific classroom activities. If items do not have prior approval from the principal and are found or seen by faculty members and staff, they will be confiscated.  If confiscated items are not picked up on or before the last day of the school year, they will be donated to a charitable

    organization. 

     

    Procedure is as follows: 

    First Offense and Second Offense: Electronic device will be confiscated and may be picked up by student from the front office at the end of the day. The item will be identified and recorded in the main office.

     

    Third Offense: Electronic device will be confiscated and must be picked up by a parent only from the front office. 

    ·      

    Fourth Offense: Electronic device will be confiscated and cannot be picked up until the end of the semester or at the discretion of the administration.

     

    Cell phones or telecommunication devices may not be used in route to and from school on school buses. While on a school bus, a student’s cell phone or telecommunication device must be turned off and stored out of sight. If confiscated items are not picked up on or before the last day of the school year, they will be donated to a charitable organization. 

     

    Students using a cell phone or telecommunication device to their own or other students' academic performance illegally or to engage in any other illegal and/ or unethical manner shall be banned from having such a device for the remainder of their attendance in a CCSD school. Additional disciplinary action may be imposed as well.
