The bill also mandates that schools must limit student use of wireless communication devices during the school day, with exceptions for educational use as directed by a teacher, emergencies, or medical needs, and requires policies to include procedures for parents to contact students and for students to contact parents during the school day. Furthermore, schools are required to provide parents, teachers, and students with a copy of these policies at the start of each school year and notify them of any changes.
