Join the Sheriff's Explorer Program!
The Habersham County Sheriff’s Office Explorer Program is now recruiting students in grades
9–12 who are interested in leadership, teamwork, and community service. This hands-on
program offers structured training, mentorship from law enforcement professionals, and
opportunities to build real-world skills while serving the community. We encourage students
who want to learn more about careers in law enforcement to participate. Applications can be
picked up from the Ninth Grade Academy or the Habersham County Sheriff’s Office. For more information, contact Deputy David Perkins at 762-230-1560
Distraction Free Learning
Students are to have their electronic communication devices and other electronic media turned off and put away upon entering the school, throughout the school day, and until they leave the school each day. A student using a cell phone outside of instructional purposes (including, but not limited to use in commons’ areas, cafeteria, restrooms, locker rooms, and hallways) will result in the following consequences:
• First Offense: Cell phone will be confiscated and returned to the student at the end of the school day.
• Second Offense: Cell phone will be confiscated and returned to a parent at the end of the school day.
• Third or additional Offenses: Cell phone will be confiscated and returned to a parent at the end of the school day. The student will also serve one day in In School Suspension (ISS).
Students who repeatedly violate the cell phone policy may be required to leave their cell phone in the office at the beginning of each school day.
Students are not permitted to video, take pictures of, or audio record other students violating any section of the Code of Conduct.
