2025-2026 Silent Study Hall Rules

 

1. Keep It Quiet This is a silent study time — no talking or whispering so everyone can focus.

2. Stick to School Work Use this time for homework, reading, or studying only. No games, videos, or unrelated activities.

3. Bring What You Need Come prepared with all your materials so you can get started right away.

4. Chromebooks Only The only device allowed is your Chromebook — please use it only for school work. Games are not allowed.

5. Headphones Are Optional Earphones can be used only if the teacher says it’s okay, and only for music that helps you concentrate on your Chromebook. If you’re listening to music, you must also be actively working on an assignment.

6. If You’re Finished Early If you don’t have work to do, you can practice on IXL or quietly read a book.

7. Stay Seated and Focused Try to stay in your seat and keep distractions to a minimum.

8. Respect Everyone’s Space Keep your area tidy and be mindful of others who are working hard.

9. No Food or Drinks (Except Water) Water in a spill-proof container is fine — no snacks or other drinks, please.

10. Stay Engaged Use this time to focus on your work — no sleeping or zoning out.

11. Listen to the Teacher Follow directions to keep our study hall calm and productive.

12. Be Considerate We’re all here to learn — let’s make sure everyone has a quiet space to focus.

 

** The Board of Education has adopted policy #7316 regarding the use of Internet Enabled Devices During the School Day. To support a focused and productive learning environment, students are not permitted to use personal internet-enabled devices during the school day while on school grounds. This includes devices such as smartphones, smartwatches, and tablets that can connect to the internet and access social media or other online content. The school day includes all periods of instruction as well as non-instructional time such as homeroom, lunch, recess, study halls, and hallway transitions.

PASS SYSTEM
Passes are required whenever a student is in the hall during class time. A pre-signed pass from a teacher is required for a student to leave a study hall to see a teacher. Students with a pre-signed pass may not leave that study hall until they receive verbal permission from the teacher. If a student is found in the hallway without a pass, the student will either be asked to return to their destination and obtain a pass, or they will be referred to the main office for disciplinary action.

Students must use the sign out sheet to sign in and out of their assigned study hall. 7-12 Students – All National Honor Society members and National Junior Honor Society members must be ready to show their identification cards whenever they are asked to do so by any staff member of the Boquet Valley CSD.
​*** All study halls will be conducted in a manner conducive to planned study. All students are expected to bring materials necessary for 40 minutes of quiet study. Attendance will be taken. It is imperative that the whereabouts of a student is known at all times in case of an emergency. If all assigned work is completed, students are expected to read their free-reading book. 

​

If such devices are used or found, they will be confiscated, and the family will be responsible for picking them up from the main office.
