Schools; directing school district boards of education to adopt policies prohibiting students from accessing certain social network or social media platforms on certain computers and devices. Effective date. Emergency.
SB 371 requires Oklahoma school districts to adopt policies prohibiting students from using school computers or school-issued devices to access social media platforms (including social networks, blogs, video-sharing sites, and similar services) while on school premises. The bill defines "social media" broadly to cover external websites and services where users contribute content. School boards must implement these policies by July 1, 2025, when the law takes effect, with the State Board of Education overseeing compliance. This directly affects students using school-provided technology during school hours.
