What happened

In March 2026 the board revised its student mobile device policy (BP 5131.8) to restrict smart glasses such as Meta glasses unless there is a need, using the same approval process as other devices. Board members asked whether to cover all internet-connected wearables, such as watches.

Why it matters to families

Students cannot wear camera-equipped glasses at school without approval.

The evidence
