The Lawrence school board on Monday will consider approving the final draft of a new policy that would implement a generally cell phone-free instructional day effective in January. Instructional time is defined in the final draft as time “a student spends receiving instruction in a school setting.” All cell phones and other personal electronic devices “must be turned off and stored out of sight” during school hours, according to the draft. The policy would apply to all students across the district, with some exceptions.
