The NPS Board of Education has approved the cell phone policy (Policy 6113) for the 2025-2026 school year. These policies will be included in the student handbooks.
Elementary:
Usage allowed at the end of the day once students have exited the building. Otherwise, devices are kept in their book bags and turned off throughout the entire school day.
Middle School:
Usage allowed at the end of the day once students have exited the building. Otherwise, devices are kept in their lockers and turned off throughout the entire school day.
Junior High:
Usage allowed before 8:00 A.M. and after 3:25 P.M. Otherwise, devices are kept in their lockers and turned off throughout the entire school day.
Senior High:
Usage allowed before and after school, during passing periods, and during lunch. Devices will be silenced and stored in a school-issued holder during the entire class period.
Consequences for not following cell phone rules are still being finalized. These will be placed in the Code of Conduct, which is contained in the Student Handbooks. The Board will approve those in July.
