The District is in the process of updating our policy language to align with New York State Law §2803. Beginning with the 2025–2026 school year, all schools will adopt an “off-and-stored” or “bell-to-bell” policy for personal internet-enabled electronic devices. This means students will not be permitted to use devices capable of texting, accessing social media, or connecting to the internet during the school day, from arrival to dismissal, including lunch, recess, and passing periods.
We value your input as we finalize this policy. Please take a moment to complete the feedback form linked below. There will be more information to follow in regard to a parent/student meeting to discuss our District's approach to this mandate.
Personal Internet-Enabled Device Feedback Form
Please note that this form will also be shared with students via their Avon email account. As students may not check these over the summer, please let your student know if they wish to provide feedback. Thank you for your partnership.
