Student Headphone Policy

YES Charter Academy Headphone Policy

1. Classroom Policies
• Each teacher may have their own policies for headphone use within their classroom. Students should prioritize and adhere to these classroom-specific policies before any school-wide policies listed here.
2. Issuance of Headphones
• YES Charter Academy may issue each student one pair of headphones during the school year.
3. Responsibility for Headphones
• Students are responsible for ensuring that their school-issued headphones are in working condition and available for use when needed.
4. Replacement of Lost or Damaged Headphones
• In the event that a student's school-issued headphones are lost or damaged, additional headphones may be purchased through the office for $1 per pair.
5. Personal Headphones
• Students may bring their own headphones from home. However, caring for headphones brought from home is the sole responsibility of the student.
• YES Charter Academy will not be able to offer assistance for personal headphones, including cases of loss, damage, or theft.
6. Headphone Adapters
• In the event that a student’s chromebook is damaged or incompatible with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, the student may be issued a 3.5mm to USB headphone adapter. Use of this adapter will be subject to the same policies outlined above.
• If the adapter is lost or damaged, an additional adapter may be purchased through the office for $5.
7. Exceptions to Policy
• If a student or family believes a situation warrants an exception to this policy they may send a written appeal to appeals@yescharteracademy.org
• Exception requests will be considered on a case by case basis
