Personal Mobile Devices (PMD) in Schools
In the last few weeks, we have been seeing an increase in students bringing phones and Smartwatches to school. Just a reminder, all CBE students are required to follow Ministerial Order #014/2024: Standards for the Use of Personal Mobile Devices and Social Media in Schools. All CBE K-9 Schools follow “Away for the Day Guidelines”.
Personal Mobile Devices include: cellphones, tablets, gaming devices, laptops or smartwatches. This also includes devices capable of communicating with a PMD (e.g. Bluetooth devices) such as headphones, earbuds, or smart speakers.
Personal mobile devices brought to school must be powered off or set to silent mode and stored out of sight in backpacks.
Full guidelines and Consequences for Inappropriate Use can be found on our PMD Webpage.
Toys and Trading Cards
Please remind students to leave toys and trading cards at home. We are seeing an increase in students bringing these items to school, resulting in conflicts, lost toys and upset students.
