Message to High School students
August 30, 2012
Union High School Senior Class Principal Lisa Witcher used the school's broadcast announcements this afternoon to deliver the following message:Students, the use of technology is a wonderful privilege; however it is an even greater responsibility. You are given the privilege of having and using cell phones at appropriate times during the school day, between classes, at lunch, before and after school, and with teacher permission during class time for instructional purposes. Please remember you are directly responsible for the contents of your cell phone. Your cell phone should never be used for inappropriate means or to create or distribute inappropriate material.
This privilege of using cell phones at school and during school activities comes with a high degree of responsibility. We desire that all students conduct themselves with the utmost character we have come to expect from our students at Union High School.
