- Cell phones should be kept in lockers during school hours including recess and lunch.
- Students will have 2 periods of 2 minutes per day to check their cell phones and respond to important messages.
- Students caught in violation of this rule will have their cell phones confiscated for the day.
- Any other technology that is being used as a distraction from school work will be confiscated for the day.
- Students will still be reachable at any time by calling the office.

New to High School Parent & Student Night
Spruce Grove Composite High School is offering an information session on June 12 from 7:00 - 8:00 pm about High School programming. This session is designed for current grade 9 families who have a first student going to SGCHS next year. For more information, see their flyer.
Musical Instruments - Donation
Our independent music option is very popular and needs your support. We are looking for electric guitars and small amplifiers. If you have a guitar or amp that you are no longer using, please consider donating them to the school for our students to use as they learn to play. Instruments can be donated to the main office or by contacting Mrs. Putt.
