Cell Phone Policy

Cell phones may only be used before arriving on campus and after leaving for the day. During school hours, students are expected to keep their phones, smartwatches, and headphones stored out of sight in their backpacks before entering the building and throughout the day. Personal devices are not allowed in hallways, classrooms, restrooms, or the cafeteria.

Key points to remember:

  • Students must put their phones, headphones, and smartwatches in their backpacks or purses before entering the building; devices should not be in their hands or pockets.

  • Students who do not follow this rule will have their phones confiscated and sent to the grade-level discipline office.

  • Confiscated phones must be picked up by a parent or guardian; they will not be returned directly to students.

  • Only wired headphones are permitted during instructional time, as directed by teachers. Bluetooth or wireless earbuds are prohibited for safety reasons.

  • If a parent or guardian needs to contact their student during the school day, please call the school office to have a message delivered.

ID

ID Badges

Safety is our top priority at Kleb. At the start of the school year, every student will receive a new ID badge. All students are required to wear their ID badge visibly around their neck on a lanyard, with their name and photo clearly displayed. This policy helps ensure the safety of all Klein ISD students and is part of our dress code.

If a student arrives at school without their ID badge on, they must purchase a temporary ID band for $1 at the ID station in the cafeteria before school. Consequences reset at the start of each grading period. Here is the sequence of consequences for not wearing the ID badge:

1st: Purchase temporary ID ($1), warning
2nd: Purchase temporary ID ($1), parent contact
3rd: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 1 school detention
4th: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 2 school detentions
5th: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 3 school detentions OR 1 Saturday school
6th: Purchase permanent ID ($5), 1 day in-school suspension (ISS)
Additional Offenses: Considered major non-compliance

Kleb administration reserves the right to adjust consequences as needed.

3 Tardies: 1 day before/after school detention

Cups

No Open Containers or Cups with Straws

Closed bottles or spill-proof containers are the best choice for staying hydrated without accidents. Thank you for helping us maintain a clean and safe environment for everyone!
