Well, it depends on the type of "trouble." The Spirit Lake Middle School handbook will still be used to define and address student behavior at SLMS. It is found online at this web address:
http://www.spirit-lake.k12.ia.us/new/Registration/MS/Student%20Handbook.pdf
School technology use is covered under a school acceptable use policy, and although the policy may be revised, students and adults will still need to respect the current, adopted policy and follow it.
In the cases where violations to the technology policy occur, there will be every effort made for you to keep your laptop for schoolwork--before, during and after school. In some cases students may only be allowed to use the computers at school. In other cases students will be able to take them home but Internet access will be disabled. Because of the 1:1 plan the laptop is about to become your source for learning. That means your textbook and assignments may be on the laptop. If you do not have Internet at home, you may have to copy some things to a folder on your laptop at home and transfer them to a different folder or email them to your teacher when you get back to school. Rest assured, that every effort will be made to keep the laptop with the student.
