In the interest of student safety and academic focus LTHS will implement the following student cell phone policy in the 2024-25 School Year. The policy is included in the 2024-25 Student Handbook and detailed below.
- Students are permitted to bring cell phones to school. Students assume all risk and responsibility for their personal cell phone while at school and during school events, including extracurricular activities. The Lackawanna Trail School District is not responsible for loss or damage to personal cell phones.
- Students are encouraged to store their cell phone in their locked locker during instructional time. If a student chooses to take their phone into a classroom during instructional hours, they must store their cell phone in a holder provided by the district with the sound and notifications turned off. Students are not permitted to take their cell phone to the lavatory with them.
- Any student who does not comply with the storage requirements during instructional time will be subject to a Level I or Level II offense of the disciplinary code. Repeat violations will result in increased disciplinary action and may result in a loss of cell phone privileges completely.
- Cell phones will not be permitted in Study Halls but are permitted during a student’s assigned lunch period. Parents are asked to refrain from texting students during instructional time.
