Louisiana school districts must now enforce a new law, Act 313, regulating cell phone use among public school students. Signed by Gov. Jeff Landry, the law prohibits students from having cell phones or electronic devices on them during school hours. Phones must be turned off and stored away in backpacks, not on students’ persons. The law eliminates previous flexibility, requiring strict adherence to prevent distractions. Schools will impose firm consequences for non-compliance to support a focused learning environment.
