Electronic Device/Cell Phone Policy
​

Electronic devices include but are not limited to: Cell phones, handheld games, laser
pointers, headphones, smart watches, and similar items.

​

Electronic devices are not to be used by students on school grounds, unless specific
exception is made for the instructional purposes of a class, or when necessary for the
health or well-being of a student, as determined by a licensed physician or surgeon.

Electronic devices and cell phones are not to be used during the school day for either
receiving or making calls or texts. If such a device is brought on campus, it must be
off and put away. We highly recommend keeping such devices at home.

If a parent needs to contact a child, please call the Main Office at (510) 231-1416.
Students that need to call home may come to the office as permitted by their
teacher.

Any electronic device seen or heard during class, lunch, or passing periods may be
confiscated by any adult. All adults on campus have the authority to confiscate any
electronic device. Students who refuse to turn in their electronic device when asked
by an adult will be brought to the office, and their families may be requested to come
to school.

If an electronic device is confiscated, a parent or an adult on the emergency card
must come to the main office to pick-up the device.
