No Cell Phones

Cell phones are a major distraction to learning. We will collect phones a tthe beginning of class and lock them up during the school day. If a student arrives late, they must turn it in and the phone will be locked up with the others. If a parent or guardian needs to talk with their student, please call the office 970-348-1000, and we will have them call you back.

Social Media (Snapchat, Instagram, FB, and other platforms) Safety:

Do not share your password with anyone else (except your parents/guardians)
Never give out personal information about yourself (including, but not limted to: your name, address, phone number, age, name of your school, names of family members, and any other identifying information). This includes pictures!
Adjust yor privacy settings so only your "friends/family" see your information.
Do not exchange texts, emails, instant messages, or become "friends" with anyone you do not know.
Do not share or post times when you are home alone or on vacation.
Do not allow anyone to use your phone and/or school computer with you supervising everything they are doing. Remember, your name/number is associated with what they are looking up, searching, and posting!
Remember that once something is posted into cyberspace, it cannot be erased or permanently deleted. Someone can always find and recover it.
Texts, pictures, emails, chats, blogs, and isntant messages can all be forwarded and pritned out. Be very careful what you type or send to someone else!
Tell a trusted adult if you are being cyberbullied, stalked, or feel "targeted."

Go Guardian

The school district has a program to monitor student computer use. If the student signs into their Google School Account, Go Guardian is activated and monitors content. If a student is on their cell phone or school computer and logged into the district server, they are being monitored.
