  • Students must use the phone in the main office if they need to communicate with home. Students should not use cell phones during the day.
  • If not feeling well, the student should notify the teacher who will send the student to the nurse’s office for assistance. The nurse will assess and communicate with home. Students should not call family members from their cell phone to be picked up due to illness. This is for the student’s safety. If a student is not feeling well, we want to be able to support the student until the family arrives.
