CELL PHONE ATTENDANCE POLICY

Smart phones are awesome; mine feels like a part of me, too, so I get it. However, after many years fighting the cell phone battle & seeing students continually distracted in the classroom, my policy will help you maintain your focus in a subject that requires your undivided attention:
  • Upon entering class each day, place your phone in your specified numbered slot along the wall of my classroom.
 ​
  • ALL ATTENDANCE WILL BE TAKEN IN THIS FASHION: If your numbered slot is empty, you will be marked absent. If you do you not have a phone, you will place a marker or calculator in the slot to indicate your presence. 
 
  • VIOLATIONS: If I see your phone out of the slot without prearranged permission, or worse, you place a dummy phone in the slot, this will be treated as open defiance rather than a typical cell phone violation due its highly deceptive & disrespectful nature. An immediate referral will be given. I do not foresee any violations even happening because I know I have respectful and great students. 
​
  • EXCEPTIONS: If you truly need to use your phone for a vital reason, simply ask, and I will allow to make your call/text before returning it to the slot. (I am reasonable; I understand there are days when you genuinely need to be accessible.)
