Board adopts cell-phone policy adding district non‑liability clause
Summary
After reviewing a proposed cell-phone policy read aloud by Principal Brad Shryock, the board agreed to add language that the district is not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen wireless telecommunication devices; the policy takes effect when school resumes after Christmas break.
The Sharon Board of Education reviewed a proposed cell-phone policy on Dec. 11 that Principal Brad Shryock read aloud to the members. The board agreed to add language clarifying that "the school is not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen wireless telecommunication devices," and Shryock will insert that wording and notify students when school resumes after the holiday break.
The motion to adopt the policy as amended passed with three affirmative votes from members present. The transcript does not specify any appeals process, disciplinary details, or insurance options; those specifics were not provided during the meeting and are "not specified."
