EXITING THE BUILDING
Students – if you are leaving the building early for an appointment, please bring your note to the Main Office first thing in the morning. The office will make a copy of your note – you will show it to your teacher and come to the office to meet your parent. They will not need to come inside to pick you up.
CHROMEBOOK/CHARGERS
Remember to charge your Chromebook at night. If something is wrong with your Charger or Chromebook, please bring it to the Media Center and enter a ticket.
CHROMEBOOKS
Do not leave your chromebook unattended outside classrooms. You are responsible for the care of the chromebook that is issued to you and insurance will not cover negligence. Students that leave their chromebooks unattended can pick up their chromebook and their after school PENALTY HALL from Mr. Hurley.
EARLY DROP OFF
Students must remain in the cafe until 7AM if they are getting dropped off early.
HALL PASSES
All students must carry an approved pass from an administrator or teacher to be in the halls during class time. This applies to student council members, yearbook students, students with early dismissal, and any student who finds it necessary to enter the halls during class time.
HALLWAYS/CLASSROOMS
Only water is allowed in classrooms. Pop, colored drinks, etc. are not allowed.
Students should not have these types of drinks in the halls either; please toss them if they can’t be closed again or close them and put them in your lockers.
