FMS Electronics Policy for 2025-2026
“Electronic devices” for this policy includes: cell phones, headphones, earbuds/airpods, hand-held games, and/or other devices which allow students to message others or access the internet for non-classroom purposes. School issued Chromebooks do NOT fall under “electronic devices” for the purpose of this policy.
Students are not permitted to use electronic devices from the time they enter the school until the time they exit at the end of the day.
Teachers are not required to remind or warn students about the electronic device policy before assigning discipline.
All staff will be assigning After-School Detentions (4:00-5:00pm) for any student who is seen with an electronic device.
Students who consistently misuse electronic devices or who refuse to put them away will have the device confiscated and kept in the office. Then the student or parent will be required to pick the device at the end of the school day.
Students who have multiple infractions of this policy may be required to turn in their electronic device at the start of each school day. Not complying with the electronics policy may result in more severe consequences for refusing to comply with the student code of conduct.
