Electronic Devices at School

Can my student bring electronic devices to school?

Can my student bring electronic devices to school?

Students are not allowed to have cellphones or airpods/earbuds turned on or visible during the school day. If they have a phone or airpods/earbuds at school, it should be turned off and out of sight from the first bell until the end bell. If they need to use a phone to contact parents, classrooms and offices have phones available. Students may use their phones outside of school hours. EMS is not responsible for loss, theft or damage. Inappropriate use will result in the loss of this privilege, as well as a parent required to come to the school to retrieve the device.

Wired headphones are a required school supply and can be used at a teacher’s request. They should not be worn in the hallways.

All students are part of Jeffco Tech for Ed program and should bring their charged Jeffco device to school every day.

Tech for Ed in Jeffco

Jeffco Public School’s 1:1 program provides first- through 12th-grade students in neighborhood and option schools a district Chromebook. This creates an equitable and sustainable model for technology-enabled classrooms that prepares students to thrive in a connected, digital world in alignment with the Jeffco Thrives Strategic Plan.

All students can access a district-purchased and managed Chromebook to personalize their learning. This closes the digital device divide and addresses the inequities in classrooms to transform learning.

Students in grades K-12 can also access a variety of digital applications and consistent tools that give them opportunities to demonstrate learning in creative and challenging ways. Each of the technology tools supports students as creators, collaborators and innovative problem solvers rather than as consumers of information.

The program also allows for professional development and learning for teachers to use the provided tools and devices to transform student learning experiences. Having consistent tools and opportunities for teacher training allows for more challenging learning and student engagement and deeper technology integration.

Digital Learning Applications in Jeffco

All students and teachers have access to premium digital learning applications with their Jeffco log-in credentials. A consistent core set of applications allows for student data privacy aligned to state legislation and seamless access for personalized learning. This includes single sign-on (SSO) and integration of applications.
