This is a reminder regarding student use of personal technology during the school day. At this time, cell phones are the devices we are seeing more frequently. 

As outlined in district policy (Use of Private Technology Devices), No use of private technology devices will be permitted during school hours. These devices must be turned off or on silent and left in backpacks, stored in a student’s locker or other place designated by building administration.

If an adult observes a student using or carrying a cell phone (either on their person or in a pencil case/pouch), the student will be asked to turn the phone over to the adult. The phone would then be brought to the greeter (Mrs. Tilt) and she will log it into PowerSchool. Each infraction/offense of the district’s policy, Use of Private Technology Devices, will result discipline which includes, but is not limited to, the following;

 1st Offense: Remind the student of the policy and have the student turn the phone over to the adult. The adult will deliver the phone to the office and the student can pick up the phone from the greeter as they are dismissed from school.

2nd Offense: The student hands the phone over to the adult. The adult will deliver the phone to the office. The student is to call home notifying a parent that his/her/their phone was taken for a second time and that a third offense will require a parent to pick the phone up from the school. The student can pick up the phone as they are dismissed from school.

3rd Offense: The student hands the phone over to the adult. The adult will deliver the phone to the office. The student is to call home notifying a parent that his/her/their phone was taken for a third time. The student informs the parent that he/she/they will not get his/her/their cell phone back until a parent picks it up from school.

The HMS PTO supports our students and teachers by supplementing academic programming and activities, and fostering a positive school environment through funding and helping hands.
