Tulia ISD approves ban on students' personal communication devices during school day
Summary
The Board unanimously adopted FNCE (LOCAL)-S on Sept. 16, 2025, prohibiting students from using personal communication devices on school property during the school day and directing storage per administrative requirements.
Tulia ISD trustees voted unanimously on Sept. 16 to adopt FNCE (LOCAL)-S, a policy that prohibits student use of personal communication devices while on school property during the school day and requires students to store any device in accordance with administrative requirements.
The motion to approve the policy was made by Board member Ashley Ramirez and seconded by Nicole Gore; the vote was unanimous. Superintendent Dixie Johnson answered board members' questions during discussion, and the policy language was recorded in the minutes as part of the Student Conduct Manual updates.
The minutes do not provide details about disciplinary steps, storage logistics, or exceptions for instructional use; those operational elements are expected to be set by district administration and reflected in the updated Student Conduct Manual.
