Kanawha Families,
Many of our students received some exciting new devices over the break. We want to remind families of the WCS Electronic Devices Policy adopted in August of 2025. Elementary School students may bring phones, ipads, watches, etc. to school. However, they are not permitted to use and/or display them at any time during the school day. They must be powered off and placed in students’ backpacks before entering the school and must remain in students’ backpacks for the entire school day. We appreciate your help in helping our students remained focused on learning while they are at school.
