Cell Phone Task Force Update Cell Phone Task Force Update

zoom_out_map

On March 12, the Board heard the presentation from the District's Cell Phone Task Force. The Board considered 3 options:


  • Option 1: No PCD's during instructional time
  • Option 2: No PCD's except at lunch
  • Option 3: No PCD's bell-to-bell (all-day)


PCD: Personal Connect Device--any device that can send/receive data. This broadly includes, but is not limited to, cell phones, tablets, watches, glasses, and headphones/earbuds.


The Board provided direction to implement option 2 for the 2025-26 school year. The Board is also interested in movement towards Option 3 with continued discussion and follow-up next school year. The Cell Phone Task Force will reconvene in the fall to continue this important work.


The Board will adopt policy pursuant to this by June 30. The school will provide much more information as we develop guidelines, update handbooks, signage, and presentations to our student and parent community between now and the start of next school year.


Thank you to all the Task Force members who participated in the meetings and those that attended to the Board presentation.
