​​​​​​​​​您可能已经听说，今年学校将限制手机和其他设备的使用。个人移动设备包括可以用于通信或访问互联网的任何设备，如手机、平板电脑、游戏设备、笔记本电脑或智能手表。这还包括与移动设备通信的设备，如耳机和蓝牙设备（例如耳塞和扬声器）。

这些新规定将适用于所有学生，但对使用设备进行医疗和健康需求、支持特殊学习需求和教育目的的学生除外。

• CBE将阻止学生在学校网络和学校设备上访问已知的社交媒体平台。
• K-9年级学生：学生在上学期间不得使用个人移动设备。学生带到学校的设备必须放在看不见的地方，并关机或设置为静音。它们应该放在书包、储物柜或老师指定的区域内，或者更好的方式是留在家里。
• 10-12年级学生：上课期间不允许使用个人移动设备，除非老师允许用于特定的学习任务。个人移动设备应该保持静音或关机，并放在袋子、书包、储物柜或老师指定的区域内。

如果发现学生在课堂上未经老师允许使用个人移动设备，CBE将与学生合作确保其理解规定。我们依靠良好的沟通和其他现有流程来确保学生知道期望值。

近年来，已经看到了在实施类似措施的学校中取得的积极成果。我们的目标是通过专注和支持的学习环境来提高学生的成就和健康。学生个人移动设备政策将于开学第一天生效。然而，该政策将在2024年12月进行审查。在此之时，将考虑学校的任何反馈，然后再将该行为准则定稿至2025年1月1日。

感谢您帮助我们使这一过渡成功。欲了解更多信息，请访问我们的网站或直接联系您的学校。​​​​​

​​​​​​​​​You may have heard that cell phones and other devices will be restricted in schools this year.  Personal mobile devices include any device that can be used to communicate with or access the internet, such as a cell phone, tablet, gaming device, laptop or smartwatch. This also includes devices capable of communicating with a mobile device such as headphones and bluetooth devices (e.g. earbuds and speakers.)​

These new rules will apply to all students, with exceptions for students using devices for health and medical needs, to support specialized learning needs and for educational purposes.  

• CBE will block student access to known social media platforms on school networks and school devices for all grade levels.
• K-9 Students: will not be permitted to use personal mobile devices during the school day. Student devices brought to school must be out of sight and either powered off or set to silent. They should be left in backpacks, lockers or areas designated by teachers or better yet - simply left at home.
• Grade 10-12 Students: personal mobile devices are not allowed during class time unless teachers allow it for specific learning tasks. Personal mobile devices should be silenced or turned off and stowed away in a bag, backpack, locker, or in a designated area as directed by teachers.  

If a student is found to be using a personal mobile device in class without permission from the teacher, the CBE will work with the student to ensure the rules are understood. We rely on good communication and other existing processes to ensure students know what is expected.   

Positive results have already been seen within schools that have implemented similar measures in recent years. Our goal is to improve student achievement and well-being with a focused and supportive learning environment.   

The Student Personal Mobile Devices policy will be in place for the first day of school. However, it is set to be reviewed in December, 2024. At that time, any feedback from schools will be considered before the AR is finalized as of Jan. 1, 2025.   

Thank you for helping us to make this transition successful. For more information, please visit our website or contact your school directly.​​​​​
