High School Policies

We have unique campus policies that apply to our high school students. For more information, please review the student handbook.

LEAVING THE PREMISES

High School students are permitted to leave school during lunch break, only if their parent has signed and returned a consent form.

The student must sign out in the office and sign in again upon their return. Students who leave school during lunch are expected to return on time for the next class – prior to 12:55pm.

 

Failure to do so may result in losing the privilege of leaving during lunch.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Students are not permitted to bring cell phones, tablets, laptops or any electronic devices to class. All such devices, when brought to school, must either be turned off and kept in the student’s backpack until after students leave school grounds for dismissal or turned into Mrs. Lazor at the beginning of the day and can be picked up when the student departs the premises.

MICROWAVE USAGE

The High School students are able to use the microwave in the High School Modular to warm or cook their lunches. Additionally, the High School students are able to bring dairy, pareve, or meat lunches and eat lunch in the High School Modular at 12:30 instead of outside. Students may not use their microwave for students in other grades. Failure to adhere to this rule may result in the student losing microwave privileges.​
