Electronics: Please support our electronics expectations at Cal Young and all 4J middle schools. Students are expected to keep their cell phones turned off and stored in lockers, including during lunch. If inappropriately used or used at inappropriate times, electronics will be confiscated and turned in at the office for safe return to the student/parents after school. Our goal is to better support the social, emotional, and academic needs of our students. While cell phones can offer convenience, our primary focus is on fostering a comprehensive development environment for our students.

Canvas Pages/ Courses: It is helpful for families to be connected to teacher courses in Canvas, in order to assist students in maintaining organization and success.  In order to learn more about Canvas and how to monitor student success in courses, please follow this link and read through the registration information:
