Electronic Communications Policy
Personal Devices During Instruction Time
The Fulton County Schools Board of Education has updated its Electronic Communications Policy to align with Georgia House Bill 340 (Distraction-Free Education Act). The policy adoption restricts high school students (grades 9 – 12) from using personal electronic devices during instructional time.
What does this mean? It means all students will be required to use a Fulton County Schools-issued device – no more personal devices on campus. Students are allowed to have cell phones, but they must be away, with no access, during class periods. Students will not be allowed to use their own laptops, tablets, watches, smart-glasses, and headphones on campus. More information on devices can be found on our Office of Information Technology webpage.
