A new state law — House Bill 1481 — says students may not use personal communication devices during the school day. That means cell phones, tablets, smartwatches, radio devices, paging devices, or any other electronic device capable of telecommunication or digital communication are prohibited while on school property from the first bell to the last bell. Devices must be turned off, out of sight, and stored away — in a locker, designated pouch, or backpack — for the entire school day.

This law applies to every public school in Texas, kindergarten through 12th grade, and we are required to adopt and enforce policies that match the law.
