Personal Communication Device
Cell Phone Policy Update
During the August 12, 2025 Special Called Board meeting, the Inappropriate use of Personal Communication Device Policy was approved following the implementation of House Bill 1481 at all schools in the state of Texas.
HB 1481 prohibits students from using personal communication devices during the school day and while on school property. Devices covered under this law include cell phones, smartwatches, tablets, radios, pagers, or any other electronic device capable of telecommunication or digital communication. The law applies to all Texas public and open-enrollment charter schools, including Lamar CISD. Exceptions are made for students with documented medical needs or special education accommodations.
All personal communication devices are required to be turned off and put away before entering the school campus. Personal communication devices shall be kept in a student’s backpack or locker, not in clothing pockets. These devices are to remain off and completely out of view onsite for the entirety of the school day.
