The Policy Committee reviewed revisions to Policy 443.5 (Student Personal Electronic Device Policy) to better reflect current district practice and recent state requirements. Committee discussion highlighted three device categories—earbuds/headphones with microphones, smart watches, and smart glasses—and emphasized that classroom flexibility for approved educational use should remain.
Members requested explicit language on restrictions during lunch periods, clearer definitions of passing periods versus instructional time, and minor grammatical corrections. The committee reached consensus to forward the revised policy to the full board for approval after staff incorporate the requested edits.
