All cellular phones are considered a contraband item during school hours (7:50AM – 2:10PM).  If a student is seen in possession of or using a cellular phone during school hours, it will be confiscated and Mālama Kuleana (detention) hours will be assigned as a consequence. If there is a need for MākuaOhana (Parents/Guardians or Family) to contact their child during the day, a message can be left with the main office and it will be passed on to the student.

Cellular phones are acceptable prior to school starting or Piko Wehe and after closing, Piko Panina, or on a case by case basis prior to and after school (with supervision).

Weʻre not exactly sure what might have changed on your end, but the first thing we should do is update your contact information.
