Board adopts limited change to student-device policy; pilot proposed for bus use
Summary
Board approved adoption of section 3000 of Policy 3245 with edits and agreed to a pilot allowing student device use on school buses; further review set for end of school year.
During a first reading of Policy 3245 (Students and Telecommunication Devices), the board debated whether to allow devices on school buses. Chair Donald Collins recommended running a pilot year to test device use on buses, and Martin “Rowdy” LaFevers suggested removing item one from the policy for now and revisiting at the end of the school year.
Rowdy moved to adopt Policy 3245 section 3000 with the requested edits; Angus Anderson seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The minutes record the board’s intent to treat on-bus device use as a pilot and to review the policy after the school year, but they do not specify pilot metrics, duration beyond “pilot year,” or enforcement details.
