CELL PHONE/ELECTRONIC PAGING PROHIBITED

The use or possession of electronic paging or two-way communication device while on school premises owned or rented by or under the control of a public school is prohibited.  This rule may allow for the use or possession of such a device by a student if the school board or its designee determine that the device is used or possessed for a medical, school, educational, vocational, or other legitimate purpose.

Cell phones will not be allowed during the instructional day (8:05-3:25). During that time, phones must be shut off and kept in lockers.

Inappropriate use of cell phones or other electronic paging devices during the school day will result in the following consequences:

2. The second offense—the cell phone/device will be confiscated and turned into the office.  The device will be returned to the parent.

3. The third offense—the cell phone/device will be confiscated and turned into the office.  The student will be issued an in-school or   out-of-school suspension.

Upper Elementary Dress Code

We take pride in the appearance of our students.  Your dress reflects the quality of the school, of your conduct, and of your school work.  All students are expected to dress and groom themselves neatly in clothes that are suitable for school activities.  Responsibility for the personal appearance of students enrolled in the Melrose-Mindoro School District shall normally rest with the students themselves and their parents/guardians.  Students dress or grooming should not, however:

a. affect the health or safety of students; or 

b. disrupt the educational process within the classroom or school.

c. any clothing which is normally identified with a gang or gang-related activities;

d. strapless tops, one-sleeved tops, spaghetti-strap tops (straps must be a minimum of 3 inches wide), halter tops, midriff-baring tops and/or bottoms, short skirts, short dresses, and short shorts. Skirts, dresses and/or shorts must be at least the length of mid-thigh or must be at the end of the student’s finger-tip when arms are at the side while standing;

Resolutions to inappropriate dress:

Þ Students will be asked to turn clothing inside out.

Þ Students will be asked to cover up with clothing provided by the office.

Þ Parents will be contacted to bring in appropriate clothing.

Þ Students may be sent home (after parent contact has been made) to change clothes.

This policy is in force during the school day.
