About the Cell Phone Work Group

The Cell Phone Work Group consists of students, teachers, administrators, and parents/guardians.  The group has met four times to study feedback from the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 survey on cell phone use, best practices and research, and procedures from other school divisions to make recommendations on policies or policy revisions to the School Board. The goal is to focus on increasing instruction and minimizing distractions in the classrooms. Research shows that cell phone use in the classroom is linked to distraction, cheating, and bullying.

In addition, on July 9, 2024, Gov. Glenn Youngkin issued , which directs school divisions to adopt cell phone procedures and policies establishing cell phone-free education during instructional time by January 1, 2025. 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 is proud to be ahead of the curve on this important topic.

The Virginia Department of Education is hosting a series of Commonwealth Conversations to give parents, educators, and community members the opportunity to share their thoughts on the best ways to achieve cell phone-free education in Virginia and address the increasing evidence of the impact cell phone and social media usage has on youth mental health and education performance.
