Phone Policy

Phones must be silenced and stored in bags, lockers, or docking stations during class, Advisory, and C3 sessions.
Allowed phone usage is before school, after school, during unscheduled blocks, passing time, or lunch.
If a phone is visible during class, the student will be required to dock it in the classroom's docking station.
Non-compliance with docking requests may lead to a visit to the House Office, where the caregiver will be notified.
Students who do not leave their phone in the House Office may require caregiver intervention to leave early.
Repeated violations can lead to disciplinary action, limiting device use during school hours.

Camera/Video Use

Using a phone’s camera/video function for non-educational purposes is prohibited.
Violating this rule results in caregiver notification and phone docking in the House Office for the day.
Continual offenses may incur disciplinary measures affecting device usage.

Late Arrivals/Tardies

Arriving late requires a check-in at the House Office for a pass.
A caregiver’s note or call is necessary on the day of tardiness to avoid unexcused absence classification.
After three tardies, the House Director will contact caregivers to find solutions for punctuality.
Five or more tardies will prompt a meeting between the House Director, student, and caregiver to develop a plan.
Frequent tardiness in one class may invoke the Cut Appeal Process.

Absences

Students absent without prior excuse will meet with the House Administrative Assistant to explain their absence.
Unexcused absences can jeopardize class enrollment and participation in co-curricular activities.
An absence longer than ten minutes is considered unexcused and subject to consequences.
Possible outcomes of unexcused absences include:
- Potential withdrawal from class without credit.
- Inability to participate in co-curricular activities on that day.
- Eligibility to complete the Cut Appeal Process to maintain class enrollment.
