Revises provisions concerning policies governing the use of certain electronic devices in schools. (BDR 34-855)

SB 444 requires Nevada school districts to update their policies on student electronic device use by including specific provisions. The bill mandates that policies define "electronic communication devices" (including phones, laptops, and tablets) and require school districts to establish graduated discipline for violations, limit device use during class, and include three exceptions: emergencies, teacher-approved instructional use, and accommodations under IEPs or 504 plans. These policies must be integrated into school behavior rules provided to students. The law directly affects school districts (requiring policy adoption by June 2026) and students (whose device use is governed by the updated rules). It does not apply to school-issued devices.
