New Student Cell Phone Use Policy
Adopted by Drew Central School Board October 9, 2008
Possession of cell phones, paging devices, beepers or similar electronic communication devices by students on school property during the school day is prohibited. (ACA §6-18-502) An exception to this policy may be made for students who participate in after-school activities, provided the cell phone is turned in at the office at the beginning of the school day, and is checked back out to the student at the end of the school day. Students who drive a vehicle to school may keep the phone locked in the vehicle, provided access to the vehicle and cell phone is not made during school hours. Any after-school use of cell phones is at the student’s risk. The school assumes no responsibility for loss or recovery of missing cell phones.
Violation of this policy will result in:
1st offense: Student will be assigned to In School Suspension. Phone will be confiscated and returned to a parent only after a conference has been held.

2nd offense: 3-day out of school suspension. Phone will be confiscated and held until the end of the semester.

3rd offense: 5-day out of school suspension. Phone will be confiscated and held until the end of the school year.

4th offense: Recommendation for expulsion from school for one calendar year.
