What is the cell phone policy at Nathan Hale-Ray?

We encourage all students to keep personal electronic devices at home, including cell phones. Students who bring cellphones to school must keep them powered off and/or in their backpacks/lockers during the school day. On occasion, a teacher may give special permission to utilize personal electronic devices during class time for research or interactive instruction, but all such instances will be communicated ahead of time. Please review our student handbook for more information.
