Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires Oklahoma school boards to create policies by the 2025-2026 school year that ban student cell phone and personal electronic device use during the school day and on school grounds. These policies must allow for emergency use, such as for documented medical issues. School boards can vote annually to opt out of the ban and allow device usage.
