During school hours student cell phones or electronic devices must remain in lockers, backpacks, or be locked in a personal vehicle. Students may use cell phones or other technology in the office area only with the express permission of the principal. Students are strictly prohibited from sending, sharing, viewing, or possessing pictures, text messages, emails or other material of a sexual nature in electronic or any other form on a computer, cell phone, or other electronic device while at school. Students who possess prohibited material on their cell phone or other electronic device while at school shall be subject to disciplinary consequences as articulated by the student handbook.

Youth Football Camp
Just a couple of things in our upcoming youth camps. Hopefully by the end of today you can go to the school website and print off the form. It should be under Documents/Camp Forms. Also, we have had a couple of groups offer to serve lunch to the kids between camp. With that being said, please text if your kid will be attending to Coach Marsh so we can get a rough number for lunches. We can also facilitate rides for the kids from the high school to the Lariat in between camps so you just drop them off in the morning and pick up in the afternoon. Lastly, there will be a tshirt for all participants. An info sheet will be present at check in and we will deliver their shirts when school starts. Cost of the shirt is included in the camp fee. If there are any other questions please reach out to Coach Marsh
