However, we still have school for the next two months and we cannot be complacent about school rules. The following are school rules that students are having difficulty following. Please help us finish the year strong by helping our children with the following: 1. Cell phones are not allowed on our campus. A. First offense: confiscate device, assign 2 day detention, return phone to parent B. Second offense: confiscate device, 2 day in school suspension, hold device for 10 days C. Additional offenses: out of school suspension, device held for a nine week period 2. Hair must be in the students natural color with no designs. 3. No boots (rubber boots may be worn on rainy days) 4. Belts must be worn with pants that have belt loops. 5. Coats/jackets/outerwear must be solid in the colors of royal, black, white, gray, or navy. 6. Belts and socks must follow the same colors as outerwear. This uniform policy pertains to all grade levels Pre-K through 5th grades.
