Is it true that the Hill School has a tradition that a student is not allowed to use internet/electronics for one day of the week?
I do not know if it’s true, but I heard a rumor that students are prohibited from electronics/internet for one day of the week and just wanted to confirm this.
I’ve never heard of the one day a week thing, but Hill does have a relatively strict policy on cell phones and similar devices. Have you read through the school handbook? Pretty much all schools have them available somewhere online and they’re a wealth of information on any school you’re considering. Here’s Hill’s: Hill School Handbook | The Hill School
Check out pages 21-23 and 77-78 in particular. It’s also a good idea to read through the acceptable use policy (p.96 in Hill’s) since it specifies how much of student activity online is the school’s purview.
No, my son has not experienced this at Hill.
