Dear Champions of Education,<br>
<br>
The following information is intended to support school administrative units (SAUs) in preparing for the implementation of a new law requiring that school boards adopt and implement a policy “prohibiting student use of personal electronic devices for the duration
of the school day, from starting bell to dismissal bell” by August 1, 2026.<br>
<br>
The following language is in Part GG of the Supplemental Budget and replaces the existing language in statute, which required a policy related to the use of personal electronic devices:<br>
<br>
<i>“By August 1, 2026, a school board shall adopt and implement a policy prohibiting student use of personal electronic devices for the duration of the school day, from starting bell to dismissal bell. The policy must restrict student use of cellular telephones
and other personal electronic devices with Internet or cellular network capabilities. The Department of Education, in coordination with the Maine School Management Association or a successor organization and other relevant stakeholders, shall make available
a model policy for school boards. The model policy must include exceptions for compliance with a student's individualized education program, a documented accommodation under Section 504 of the federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 United States Code, Section
794 (2026) regarding an individual student, the delivery of prescribed medical care as outlined in a student's individualized health care plan and language support services for a student who is an emergent English language learner when no other translation
option is available.”</i><br>
<br>
<b><u>Required Action</u></b><br>
<b>All school boards must adopt a compliant local policy no later than August 1, 2026.</b><br>
<br>
<b><u>Scope of the Law</u></b><br>
The law applies to:</span></p>

Recommended practices include:</span></p>

The Maine DOE will provide funding for SAUs to support costs associated with prohibiting the use of personal electronic devices during the school day. A total of $350,000 has been allocated by the Maine Legislature for this initiative.<br>
<br>
Funds will be distributed to SAUs that operate schools serving grades 6 through 12, based on October 1, 2025, attending enrollment counts (</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; color: rgb(51, 102, 153); line-height: 150%;"><a href="https://us.list-manage.com/pOWlCqRHQY4?e=cad42e3b04&c2id=2719a1af93066ca303788645eb7f57c1" id="OWA6356b1f3-ab00-44ca-fa5e-511fc4881ee6" class="OWAAutoLink" originalsrc="https://us.list-manage.com/pOWlCqRHQY4?e=cad42e3b04&c2id=2719a1af93066ca303788645eb7f57c1" data-auth="NotApplicable" style="color: rgb(51, 102, 153); margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><u>linked
here</u></a></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; color: rgb(80, 80, 80); line-height: 150%;">). Distribution of funds to those SAUs will occur after the enactment of the Supplemental Budget on July 29, 2026. Funds should be
recorded in each SAU as Revenue Code 3290 Miscellaneous State Receipt with a fund code in the range of 2200 - 2214 – Special Revenue Fund – State Grants.<br>
<br>
<b><u>Additional Support Opportunities</u></b><br>
To support implementation efforts statewide, the Maine DOE and Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention will offer implementation support opportunities throughout the summer and fall. Additional information regarding webinars, technical assistance, and
implementation resources will be shared in the coming weeks.<br>
