Dear GMS Parents and Guardians,
We are reaching out to request your support in ensuring that all students adhere to the state-wide cellphone policy. Please note that this is not a rule set by Georgetown County School District (GCSD), Georgetown Middle School (GMS), administration, teachers, or staff—it is a state mandate that applies to all schools.
Students who do not comply with this policy will face consequences, including having their phones confiscated. Our goal is to be proactive in enforcing these rules to promote a safe and distraction-free learning environment.
We kindly ask for your partnership in discussing the importance of this policy with your child. Please emphasize that the rules will be strictly applied and enforced without exception.
Once again, we want to stress that this is a state-wide regulation, not a GMS rule. We appreciate your cooperation and ongoing support in helping us maintain a positive and productive school environment.
Sincerely,
Seth Hillman
GMS Principal
