Cell Phone Policy

Beginning January 6th, 2025, personal electronic devices must be off and in student's backpacks from arrival on campus to dismissal; this includes, but is not limited to, anything that can access the internet such as cell phones, tablets, smart watches, gaming devices, device accessories, wireless headphones, and earbuds. 

The purpose of this policy is to create a phone-free school environment that fosters a positive learning experience free from electronic distractions. By prohibiting the use of personal electronic devices during the school day, this policy aims to provide an environment that enhances focus and engagement, allowing students to develop the college and career-ready skills outlined in the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate. Students will have more opportunities to engage in meaningful interactions, collaborate with peers, and cultivate the essential skills necessary for success in college, careers, and life.
