Clinton-Massie High School Cellular Device Policy

Overview:

To support a focused school learning environment, students are expected to store their personal technology devices (cell phones, earbuds, and smartwatches) in their lockers during the entire academic school day. Phones are not permitted in the classrooms or during lunch. Access to devices for health monitoring or approved medical purposes is protected under law and supported by our nursing staff. Emergency phone access or parent contact support can be achieved by contacting the high school office.

Implementation Timeline

• August 14th to August 22nd (First 7 days of school): Teachers will provide verbal warnings and reminders as students adjust to the new policy. No formal consequences will be issued during this grace period. If a student violates this policy, they will be asked to put their devices in their lockers.

Violation Consequences

• 1st offense:

• The device is confiscated and held by the teacher until the end of the day.

• The teacher contacts the parent/guardian via phone or email.

• The incident is recorded using PSW as a warning

• 2nd offense

• The device is confiscated and turned over to the high school office.

• Students may pick up the device from the main office after 2:20 p.m. They are not to leave class early to pick up the device.

• The teacher documents the incident in PSW as a violation.

• Student will receive an after-school detention (2:20 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. on Tuesdays)

• 3rd offense

• The device is confiscated and must be picked up by a parent/guardian at the end of the day.

• The teacher records the incident in PSW as a violation.

• 4th offense

• The device is confiscated, picked up by a parent, and it is not permitted to return to school.

• Student will receive a 1-day out-of-school suspension & juvenile court behavior referral.

Refusal to Comply

Refusing to hand over a device when asked is insubordination and will result in progressive disciplinary action:

• First refusal - One day in-school suspension

• Second refusal - Three days out of school suspension

• Third refusal - Five days out of school suspension

• Fourth - Ten days out of school suspension and recommendation for further disciplinary action.

Additional notes

• All confiscated devices will be securely held in the main office.
