Board adopts student cell phone policy
What happened
On July 13, 2026 the board approved a cell phone policy and the junior and senior high handbook for 2026-27. The superintendent had given cell phone policy updates at the May and June meetings.
Why it matters to families
The policy changes when and where students may use phones at school. The minutes do not include the policy text, so families should ask the school for it.
