??Late Nighter??
The 7th and 8th grade Late Nighter is scheduled for Friday, March 6th from 6-10PM. Sales have been VERY slow for this normally popular event. All tickets are sold ahead of time, no tickets will be sold at the door. If your son/daughter is interested in attending, please have them bring their $10 and sign up at lunch soon!
Cell Phones and Other Electronic Devices
In a survey of all 7th grade students, about 60% of them had their own cell phone. That's quite a number! I just thought I would let we handle the use of cell phones and electronic devices in school.
Students are welcome to bring their MP3 players, cell phone, iTouch, etc. devices to school. Many kids listen to their iPod on the bus, or use their phone after school, and this is not a problem. What we ask is that kids store their device in their locker and not take it into class. When we see these devices out during the school day, they get placed in the front office. The first time this happens, we give the device back to the student at the end of the day. The second time, we keep the device until a parent picks it up.
We hope that students learn to use their (very cool) device(s) in a responsible manner that does not interfere with the school environment. Thank you for your help in this!
