Common sense policies to evaluate for school devices:

  • Setting daily and weekly time limits on in school usage by grade, monitored and enforced by the district.

  • No screen time used as a behavioral reward or punishment. No use of devices to fill extra time.

  • Devices closed or put away when not in active use during a lesson

  • Daily and weekly time limits on in school usage by grade, monitored and enforced by the district

  • No device use during passing periods, lunch, or recess

  • Evaluate device monitoring tools for teachers like GoGuardian
