Students in grades 7–12 are invited to join Homework Hour after school from 3:00–4:00 pm Mondays-Thursdays in Mr. Christiansen's room. This is a great opportunity to receive extra help on assignments, ask questions, and stay on top of classwork in a supportive environment.

As the school year begins tomorrow, we are reaching out with an important reminder:

Grades 5-6

• Cell phones should be left at home.
• If a phone is found, it will be placed in the student’s backpack for the remainder of the day.
• If your child is concerned about their locker lock, please contact the main office.

Grades 7–12

• Cell phones may not be used during class time (bell to bell) unless a teacher explicitly asks students to use them for instructional purposes.

General Expectations (All Students)

• Devices must be used safely, responsibly, and respectfully at all times.
• Students are responsible for their own devices. The district is not responsible for loss, theft, or damage.
• Cell phones and devices are not permitted in locker rooms, restrooms, or other private areas.
• Sharing or creating inappropriate or illegal content (photos, videos, audio, etc.) may result in disciplinary action and could also violate state or federal law (Policy 5209).

Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and focused learning environment for all students.
