What happened

Policy 09.4261 permits possession but bars instructional-time use except emergencies and teacher-directed or authorized use.

Why it matters to families

Disability-authorized devices are excluded, and confiscated devices are returned only to a parent or guardian. This current policy predates the review window; an older high-school handbook differs on adult-student return.

The evidence

Policy 09.4261 permits possession but bars instructional-time use except emergencies and teacher-directed or authorized use.

The source

Somerset current policy — 09.4261 - Telecommunication Devices
