    Pennsylvania School Districts can now choose to ban cell phones in classrooms.

    Any bans would take time to go into effect.

    Senate Bill 700 which was incorporated in the now passed state budget has turned into Act 55 of 2024.

    That means starting this upcoming school year districts will decide whether to implement lockable cell phone bags.
