Committee of conference appointed - (Peisch-F. Moran-Vieira), in concurrence
Summary
The bill defines “personal electronic device” and directs the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to create model policies and guidance for schools to prohibit student use and possession of such devices on campus and during school‑sponsored activities. Each public school or district must adopt a written policy by September 1, include enforcement rules that avoid expulsions or suspensions, and allow exemptions for special‑education plans, disability accommodations, health needs, or travel. The aim is to improve learning and mental health by reducing distractions while ensuring fair discipline.
