The Arkansas Legislature is moving forward with a bill regulating cell phone use in public schools.
The bill by Sen. Tyler Dees, R-Siloam Springs, to limit device use in schools was approved Monday by a unanimous vote in the Senate Education Committee. The “Bell to Bell, No Cell Act” wouldn’t necessarily prohibit students from having phones on school property, but would ban using their phones during school hours.
