District updates cell-phone policy to reflect state-level changes
Summary
Parkview staff proposed revisions to Policy 443.5 on personal communication devices to comply with state-level requirements and to address evolving technology access among students.
Policy 443.5 (Cell Phones and Personal Communication Devices) was placed on the committee agenda for revision. Administrator Amy Lewis said the updates respond in part to state-level changes that require districts to have cell-phone bans in place and to address differences in students' access to technology.
Committee members discussed how to balance compliance with state guidance and equitable access for students who rely on personal devices. The committee directed staff to reconcile draft language with state requirements and return with a revised policy for further review.
