Cell Phone Impact and Policy Survey

Gather community voice to set and assess cell phone policies that fit your schools’ unique needs

About the Survey

The rapid rise of cell phone use in schools is reshaping the educational landscape. Many states are passing laws requiring districts to implement cell phone policies. This means districts need to develop safe and effective cell phone policies that are right for their communities.

But here’s the challenge: no single policy will work for every district. Each district’s needs, challenges, goals, and values are unique when it comes to personal device use in the classroom.

Collecting meaningful feedback from students, teachers, staff, and families ensures the policies you create are tailored to your community’s specific circumstances.
