Wireless Communication Devices (cell phones, AirPods, earbuds, tablets) Indiana State Law requires that all cell phones and wireless communication devices (earbuds, air pods) are inaccessible during instructional time...which means lunch and passing periods are not permissible times to use devices. We will have a place for students to bring their cell phones at the beginning of the day, or students may keep their devices powered off and inaccessible in their backpack. Students who violate the policy will take the device to the office for the remainder of the day, with more serious consequences for repeated violations. This law has changed from last school year.
