Cell phones must be silenced and put away. Having a cell phone out during the day is a violation of the Whitewater student code of conduct and a disruption to instruction. All students will get one warning during homeroom. If a cell phone is caught out, that teacher will take the phone, give it to the office and keep till the end of the day. Parents, please speak with your students about the cell phone policy. We have technology ready for students to use to engage in learning activities.
