Technology Policy

Phone Policy
Classroom phones are not to be used by students. A student’s cell phone must be turned off
and in your locked locker, unless a staff member has granted permission otherwise.
Students must communicate with parents/guardians through school phones only. Students
may not use their cell phones to call home even if they are not feeling well. They must see
the nurse. Students who do not follow these expectations will have their phones temporarily
confiscated and it may be necessary for a parent to come and collect the phone. Students
are not to text and/or call parents or any other person during the day.
 
Laptops
BYOD Devices are allowed to be used for school work during the school day at the
Ottoson. 
 
We do offer Chrome Books for our students to use for any school work. Chrome Books must be returned to OMS at the end of the school year. If your student forgets their Chrome Book at home and needs it for class, they are able to check out a Chrome Book from the front office and they must be returned at the end of the day. There is a limited amount so borrowing a Chrome Book is on a first come first serve basis.
