Cell phones are not allowed during the school day, including watch phones. Students have access to phones throughout the building. There is no need for a student to bring a phone to school. If they do and are caught using it, the phone will be taken away and given back after school. More than one incident and the phone will only be released to parents. Some parents require their student to have a cell phone in their possession for safety if they walk home or ride the bus. In this case, the student may bring the phone to school, check it into the office or their teacher each morning and check it back out each afternoon. Journey Elementary is not responsible for lost, broken or stolen cell phones.

School phones are not to be used to make arrangements to go home with a friend.  This type of planning should be done at home with parents’ knowledge rather than at school.  Permission to use a school phone must be obtained from the classroom teacher and/or office personnel.
