Bunceton prepares for the start of the school year
Bunceton School begins classes for the 2025-2026 school year. Thanks to the Missouri Legislature, there will be some big changes this year. New laws prohibit the use of personal electronics in schools, including phones, tablets, ear buds, AI, smart watches or any other electronic device. The school has decided these devices may NOT be left in lockers or backpacks. If a student does enter the school building with their cell phone, they must check their phones in upon arrival at the office and then sign them out at the end of the day, with a school adult. Electronics may be left in a student’s vehicle at their own risk. Disciplinary actions for policy violations are outlined in the student handbook. While the law makes provisions for exceptional/medical circumstances, they must be approved by a district administrator. The school understands this poses some challenges for students and families. They sincerely appreciate your help in supporting the school and upholding the new legislation, in an effort to protect and preserve your child’s education.
