Distraction Free Learning Bell-to-Bell Cellphone Ban

All schools in NYS are mandated to create a plan to ensure no use of internet-enabled devices in school during instructional hours. Only devices that are provided by the school can be utilized. This means that there are no cell phones, smart watches, wireless headphones, or electronic devices (tablets, etc.) of any kind allowed in homeroom through the end of the instructional day. To help answer your questions about how Pine Valley will handle this requirement, please see the attached Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document.
