We will add Frequently Asked Questions regarding the USD 338 Cell Phone Ban throughout the summer. Please contact john.hamon@vfalls338.com with any questions.
Why did the district’s cell phone policy change?
In spring 2026, Kansas legislators passed a law, and every Kansas school district is now required to ban student access to and use of cell phones and other personal electronic communication devices from “bell to bell.”
What does the cell phone ban include?
USD 338 students will not be allowed to have or use any personal electronic communication
device on any public school campus between the start and end of the school day. In accordance with Kansas law, this includes during lunch and during passing periods. In our district, the school day is 8:00am to 3:25pm for all students.
Is the district cell phone ban the same in every school? Yes
What is considered a “personal electronic communication device” under the 2026 Kansas law?
This term is defined in the law to include any wireless electronic communication device that provides for voice, text or video communication between two or more parties. This includes a mobile or cellular phone, tablet, computer, watch, wireless headphones or earbuds, text messaging device or personal digital assistant, among others. The law does not restrict devices that students receive from the school district, such as the Chromebooks used in our schools. These are allowed and should be brought to school for learning activities, as in the past.
