Tascosa High School Hall of Fame

High schools in Amarillo ISD induct two former students or community members with close ties to the school into their Hall of Fame each year. Hall of Fame committees are comprised of faculty, administration, community members who are graduates of the school, class officers and student council leaders. The committee accepts nominations for inductees during the school year and announces their names at a program held either in the fall or spring semester.

Teachers and administrators may confiscate electronic devices used in violation of this policy. Students who repeatedly violate this policy may be subject to established disciplinary measures.

• For each offense, the student’s parent or guardian will be notified that a device has been confiscated.

• Anytime a device is confiscated, $15.00 may be charged in order for the device to be returned.

Principals may designate a time and day of the week to return cell phones and other electronic devices that have been confiscated during the previous seven days. The school will keep a log of all confiscated devices and will receipt each return. All fees collected are designated to be used for security hardware on the campus.
