The cell phone policy reads that junior high students are allowed to carry cell phones to and from school. They are to
be completely OFF and put away from the time students enter school until the time students exit the school. We are
reminding students of the policy. If the policy is violated, your cell phone will be taken up and turned into the office.
The first violation is a warning but a parent must come to the school to retrieve the phone. Subsequent violations will
result in a $15 charge for the parent to have the phone returned. There is to be no texting to parents for them to
come get you because you are sick or to bring something to school that you forgot. Students, if you are sick; ask to
see the nurse. Students if you forgot something; ask a teacher if you can phone home. Thank You!
The cafeteria opens up at 7:30 on days when the temps or wind chill is below 42 degrees. Students who choose to
stay outside must come into the courtyard. Students who choose to go inside must stay inside. Thanks
CJH is a closed campus. Students must remain on campus once arriving whether by bus, foot, bicycle, or automobile.
Parents must sign students out to leave campus or permission given under special circumstances. Going to Allsup’s
without permission results in ISS.
Thanks
