CCS Student Cell Phone and Personal Electronics Policy for Elementary Students
Our County has adopted the "Off and Away" rule for student cell phones/smart watches on campus. Please see more specifics under the school board policy manual for the most updated policy. Here Is a quick link. Students are not to have their cell phones out or In use during Instructional time.
Elementary School: Students are not allowed to utilize personal electronic devices from arrival on campus through departure from campus. Students are required to power off and securely store their electronic devices away from their person throughout the school day, this includes smart watches.
Children are permitted to use the school telephone only in an emergency situation. The classroom teacher must grant permission in order for a student to use the telephone. Forgotten papers, instruments, or school materials do not constitute an emergency. Students are discouraged to bring personal cell phones to school. However, if a parent wishes for the child to have a cell phone it must remain off and kept inside their book bag during the school day and on the bus ride home. The school cannot be held liable if it is lost and/or damaged.
Teachers will not be interrupted during instructional time for telephone calls. If you call during the instructional day you will be given the opportunity to leave a message on his/her voicemail. The teacher will return your call within 24 hours. Please be aware that teachers may not have the opportunity to check their voicemail until the school day is over.
