District news
Personal internet-enabled devices barred throughout school day
What happened
District policy 7316 restricts personal internet-enabled devices during the full school day, including lunch, recess and passing periods, with instructional, medical and disability-related exceptions.
Why it matters to families
Students generally store these devices in backpacks or lockers; the district announcement does not require collection into locking pouches.
The evidence
The district’s August 14 family announcement identifies August 5 adoption and explains storage, exceptions, and the distinction between personal internet-enabled devices and permitted district instructional devices. This current-policy source predates the normal review window.
