California Schools Crack Down on Phones | Sacramento News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

California’s schools are going phone-free in classrooms — and it’s not just one district. Tracy Unified and Modesto City Schools are enforcing strict new policies requiring students in grades 6-12 to power down and store phones during class, with teachers approving limited educational use. Younger kids have had similar rules for years. The goal? Sharper focus, less distraction, better mental health, and stronger peer connections. Consequences include confiscation or parent calls for violations — a statewide push to get students back to learning, not scrolling.
