Schools are closed for the summer, but rules governing cellphones at school remain a hot topic in Oregon and across the country.
Last month, one of the largest school districts in the country, Los Angeles Unified, announced a ban on cellphones starting in January. New York City public schools could make a similar announcement soon.
A few states have passed legislation regarding phones in schools. Bills in Ohio and Indiana require school districts to pass policies to limit cellphone use, according to Education Week. Florida鈥檚 legislation completely bans the use of 鈥渨ireless communication devices鈥 in schools.
