Cell Phone Policy

HOP is committed to fostering a learning-friendly environment, and as such, we are dedicated to upholding our cell phone policy.

Student Cell Phone Policy:

  • Cell phones and electronic devices must be turned off or set to silent mode during instructional hours, including classes, examinations, and other school-related activities, unless explicitly permitted by a teacher for educational purposes.
  • In cases of emergency or urgent need, students are allowed to use their cell phones to make calls. However, students must promptly inform a teacher or school staff member if they need to use their phone for such purposes.
  • Texting, using social media, or engaging in non-academic communication during class is prohibited unless it is part of a teacher-approved educational activity.
  • Violations of this policy may result in disciplinary actions, including but not limited to warnings, temporary confiscation of devices, parent/guardian notification, and, in severe cases, suspension or other appropriate measures.
  • It is the responsibility of each student to comply with this policy and the school's rules and guidelines regarding cell phone use.
  • Phone free during class graphic
