In order to ensure that everyone enjoys the opportunity to work and study in quiet surroundings, students must follow ALL school guidelines established for appropriate behavior. NO personal electronic devices (cell phone, iPods, etc.) are permitted to be seen or used in the LMC. NO Food or Drinks are permitted in the LMC.
