Consistency of rule enforcement for use of personal electronic devices in schools seems to be the main concern for teachers, Superintendent Dr. Lance Hatch told the Board of Education during its workshop Tuesday.
Hatch reported on a survey about cell phones he sent to faculty members at secondary schools. The short survey targeted two key items — whether current rules support maintaining a positive learning environment and whether enforcement of the school adopted cell phone rules are adequate. While the majority of respondents said cell phone rules supported maintaining an effective learning environment and enforcement was adequate, Hatch said the percentage disagreeing with those statements still show a need for consideration of a district-wide policy.
