Victoria – Cellphone restrictions in schools are now in place. The new rules will:
• Reduce in-class distractions
• Help young people learn healthy habits around technology
• Support learning
• Support in-person socializing
Ask your school what they have planned.
In Mission, a directive went out to parents on the first day of class: I-pads and computers won’t be affected, however PDD or personal digital devices ( ie cellphones) will be restricted.
