Written notes signed by parents/guardians are required for the following:
- Absence and/or tardiness.
- Failure to comply with any aspect of the school uniform regulations.

Student Use of School Telephone*
Students need the permission of the office personnel to use the school telephone. No student will be called to the telephone. Important messages will be given to the receptionist who will give them to those concerned. Families must be organized and responsible for arranging transportation before the school day starts. Students are not allowed to use the office phone to get parents/guardians' permission to go to a friend's house.
Student Cell Phone and Personal Devices Policy*
Students are not allowed to have cell phones or personal devices such as smart watches on campus. In extenuating circumstances, students who must have cell phones, smart watches, or other personal devices on campus must turn them in to the teacher at the beginning of each day. Phones must be turned off and not kept in silent mode. Phones will be placed in a basket for safekeeping. Personal phones at school are solely the responsibility of the owner. The school will not be liable or held responsible for personal phones or devices in any way. Misuse of personal phones during school hours or on school property will be confiscated, which will constitute a Saturday detention and a $75 fee. Parents must pick up the devices from the principal. Parents/guardians are asked not to contact their child(ren) through a personal cell phone. Devices of this nature that disrupt class will be confiscated and held in the School Office for parents/guardians to pick up. Students are not to contact home or anyone outside of school using cell phones or electronic devices without the permission of school personnel. All necessary communication must be done through the office.
