Electronic Device Policy

Sometimes we just need a reminder--
Items such as cell phones, Ipod/mp3 players, laptops, DVD players etc. should only be used during appropriate times. Electronic devices should never be used while a chaperone is giving instructions, during elected official visits, meals, touring, or presentations. A chaperone will advise you when it is appropriate to use such items. Personal cell phone calls should only be made/received in your rooms before breakfast or at night after room check. (It is probably a good idea to let your parents know that you will only call them in the evenings once you have returned to your room.) We recommend you bring your cell phones with you only for emergency purposes or to assist the chaperones or other groups in locating each other. Keep in mind if you do not recognize a number calling you it may be a chaperone trying to get in touch with you.

Disobeying this policy will result in you losing your cell phone the remainder of the trip. As well has having to call your parents to inform them why you no longer have a cell phone during the trip.
