requiring school boards to develop and enact policies regarding personal cell phone use in schools.

HB 131 requires all public school boards to create and adopt written policies governing student use of personal cell phones during school hours. This directly affects school boards (as the policy creators) and students (as the individuals subject to the rules). The bill mandates that these policies address how cell phones may be used, stored, or restricted while on school grounds. It does not specify particular restrictions but sets a requirement for school boards to establish clear, formal guidelines. The policy must be enacted by the school board, not by individual schools.
