Recently, Governor DeWine, Lt. Governor Jon Husted, and Department of Education and Workforce Director Stephen D. Dackin announced the publication of a model policy designed to minimize student use of cell phones during school hours. This model policy prohibits or discourages students from using cell phones or similar electronic communication devices on school property during school hours. Students must keep their cell phones in a secure place such as their locker, a closed backpack, or a storage device provided by the district, whenever cell phone use is prohibited.

Exceptions to the policy include cases when students must use their cell phones for a documented purpose as part of an Individualized Education Program (IEP) or for monitoring a health concern.

The Department created the model cell phone policy as part of the requirements of House Bill 250, recently signed into law by Governor DeWine.  H.B. 250 mandates every school district in the state to establish an official policy governing cell phone usage and emphasizes limiting cell phones to the greatest extent possible by July 1, 2025.

We are communicating this information with you now to begin changing the mindset of students and families. Recent research shows that students are more engaged in their learning when they are not tempted by their devices. Far too many students are focused on engaging with peers which often results in various school issues. We want to partner with you to help students use their time wisely and support their intellectual growth. 

School districts have the option to adopt the Department’s model policy or create their own policy, provided it meets all the requirements within H.B. 250. Wayne High School, and Huber Heights City Schools, will be engaging with the school community during the year to gather feedback on this important topic. We will communicate the adopted cell phone policy once finalized. Until then, we ask that students follow their classroom teacher’s expectations regarding cell phone use. 

Thank you for your cooperation and support.
