​Cell Phones
Cell phones are not allowed in the Realm during instructional time... not even in your pocket. Though technology is a useful tool, cell phones in class create more distraction than help. I have a device depot where all phones will be kept during class time.   LBJ also has also determined that phones are only allowed to be used during lunch time. 


Quote of the Week:
​"The capacity to learn is a gift.  The ability to learn is a skill.  The willingness to learn is a choice."
