Students are prohibited from engaging in sexting, whether over the School's systems or using their own electronic devices regardless of where the student was when the sexting occurred.

Even seemingly joking or flirtatious sexting behavior is wrong and will not only lead to disciplinary action, but could lead to a report to law enforcement. e School will comply with all state and local laws regarding sexting.
