Dear FCMS Families,
As outlined in our Student Code of Conduct, Falls City Middle School is a phone-free school. Our expectation is that when students arrive to their first period class, they place their cell phones in the designated classroom phone box for the duration of the school day.
Recently, we have seen a significant increase in students attempting to bring phones into classrooms without turning them in and using them throughout the day. This has become disruptive to instruction and takes away from the focused, distraction-free learning environment we strive to provide for all students.
To clarify our procedures:
First Offense: The student will be required to turn their phone into the office each morning moving forward, rather than placing it in the classroom phone box.
Second Offense: The phone will be held in the office until a parent or guardian comes to retrieve it.
Our goal is not to be punitive, but to protect instructional time and maintain classrooms as spaces dedicated to learning, collaboration, and positive peer interaction. Research and our own experience consistently show that limiting phone access during the school day improves focus, engagement, and academic outcomes.
We would greatly appreciate your partnership in reinforcing this expectation at home. Please visit with your child about the importance of following our phone-free policy and supporting a strong learning environment for everyone.
Thank you for your continued support of FCMS. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Meghan Robeson
Principal
