Senate Bill 288 - Child Sexual Abuse, Dating Violence, and Sexual Violence Prevention

House Bill 250 - Cell Phones in Schools

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, Lt. Governor Jon Husted, and Department of Education and Workforce Director Stephen D. Dackin recently announced the publication of a model policy designed to minimize student use of cell phones during school hours.

The model policy prohibits students from using cell phones or similar electronic communications devices on school property during school hours. It also requires that students keep their cell phones in a secure place – such as their locker, a closed backpack, or a storage device provided by the district – at all times when cell phone use is prohibited.
