Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill changes the rules about cell phone and personal electronic device use in Oklahoma public schools. It removes the option for school boards to decide their own policy starting in the 2026-2027 school year, instead making the prohibition on these devices from "bell to bell" mandatory for all school districts every year, starting with the 2025-2026 school year. The policy must include disciplinary actions and may allow exceptions for emergencies or health monitoring.
