JCPS to implement 'school-based' cellphone policy starting next year
THURSDAY. THAT맥스카지노S COMING UP NEXT. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU JAY. NEXT SCHOOL YEAR JCPS STUDENTS WILL NO LONGER BE ALLOWED TO USE THEIR CELL PHONES IN THE CLASSROOM. BUT SOME BOARD MEMBERS ARE CONSIDERING TAKING THAT RULE ONE STEP FORWARD. 비바카지노 Viva맥스카지노S JAMIE MAYES JOINS US LIVE FROM LINCOLN ELEMENTARY. JAMIE, YOU SAY THAT STEP WOULD BE PHONES OFF ANYTIME ON CAMPUS. THAT맥스카지노S RIGHT. VICKY, SOME SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS SAY THEY맥스카지노RE CONSIDERING NOT ALLOWING STUDENTS TO USE THEIR CELL PHONES AT ALL DURING THE SCHOOL DAY. AND WHILE SOME DISTRICT LEADERS SAY ENFORCING THAT RULE FOR ALL STUDENTS WOULD BE CHALLENGING, EVERYONE AGREED THEY맥스카지노RE TRYING TO DO WHAT맥스카지노S BEST FOR STUDENTS. ON TUESDAY, THE JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION DISCUSSED NEW RULES WHICH MEMBERS HOPE WILL INCREASE INSTRUCTIONAL TIME AND IMPROVE STUDENTS FOCUS ON LEARNING. IN MARCH, HOUSE BILL 208 WAS SIGNED INTO LAW BY GOVERNOR BESHEAR. IT REQUIRES BOARDS OF EDUCATION TO CREATE A CELL PHONE POLICY, WHICH AT A MINIMUM DOES NOT ALLOW CELL PHONE USE DURING INSTRUCTIONAL TIME. THE LAW MADE IT A LITTLE BIT LIGHTER, THEY SAID. TEACHERS CAN ALLOW CELL PHONE USE IF IT HAS TO DO WITH A LESSON. WE SAID NO, THAT THE UMBRELLA IS IN THE CLASSROOM. IT CANNOT BE USED AT ANY TIME. JCPS SAYS NEXT SCHOOL YEAR THERE WILL BE A SCHOOL BASED CELL PHONE POLICY, WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR EACH SCHOOL IN THE DISTRICT TO CREATE THEIR OWN PLAN FOR IMPLEMENTATION. JAMES CRAIG, WITH THE JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION, SAYS IT맥스카지노S IMPORTANT FOR STUDENTS AND STAFF ON EACH CAMPUS TO WORK TOGETHER. FOR THIS TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU맥스카지노RE GOING TO HAVE A MORE SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME. IF YOU HAVE BUY IN FROM EVERYBODY INSIDE OF THE BUILDING. WE HAVE TO HAVE THAT BUY IN. AS PART OF THE DISTRICT맥스카지노S CELL PHONE POLICY, EACH SCHOOL WILL DETERMINE STANDARDS FOR EQUITABLE ENFORCEMENT, DEVELOP PLANS FOR MONITORING COMPLIANCE CHECKS AND NECESSARY EXEMPTIONS. BUT SOME SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS SAY IT맥스카지노S IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER ADDING ELEMENTS TO THE POLICY TO BAN PHONES BEYOND THE CLASSROOM, SUCH AS IN HALLWAYS OR THE CAFETERIA. WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE. WE맥스카지노RE IN THE MIDST OF A VERY SERIOUS MENTAL HEALTH PANDEMIC THAT IS IN PART, BEING EXACERBATED BY DEVICES. AND DISTRICT LEADERS SAY THEY WILL CONTINUE TO CONSIDER WHAT맥스카지노S NECESSARY TO ENSURE THE ACADEMIC SUCCESS OF ALL STUDENTS. WE NEED TO GET RID OF THESE CELL PHONES INSIDE OF THE BUILDING. HOW DO WE DO IT? IS THE QUESTION THAT WE ARE GRAPPLING WITH, AND BOARD MEMBERS SAY THEY WILL CONSIDER ADDITIONS TO THE POLICY AND THEN VOTE ON IT IN MAY. THE APPROVED POLICY IS EXPECTED TO TAKE EFFECT NEX

The Jefferson County Board of Education met on Tuesday to discuss rules they hope will increase students' focus and classroom engagement.In March, Gov. Andy Beshear signed House Bill 208 into law, which mandates all Boards of Education to establish rules restricting cellphone use during instructional hours. "The law made it a little bit lighter. They said teachers can't allow cellphone use if it has to do with a lesson. We said no. The umbrella is in the classroom. It cannot be used at any time," said JCPS Superintendent Marty Pollio. Beginning next school year, JCPS says there will be a school-based cellphone policy which will allow for each school in the district to create their own plan for implementation.As part of the policy, schools will develop equitable enforcement standards, monitoring plans, compliance checks, and evaluate necessary exemptions. However, some board members, like Corrie Shull, suggest extending the cellphone ban beyond classrooms to areas like hallways and cafeterias."We know we are in the midst of a very serious mental health pandemic. That is in part exacerbated by devices," said Shull.The board says they will continue to consider what's necessary to ensure the academic success of all students."We need to get rid of these cellphones inside of the building. How do we do it? That is the question we are grappling with," said James Craig, JCPS Board member.Board members say they will consider additions to the policy and vote in May.
