ECSD SURVEY ON CELL PHONE USE IN CLASSROOMS
ECSD
Elko County School District is exploring a districtwide cell phone policy and needs your input! Families, staff, and students are encouraged to participate in a brief, confidential survey to share their thoughts on cell phone use in classrooms.
The survey results will be presented to the Board of Trustees on December 3, 2024.
In addition to answering the survey questions, you may provide your contact information if you're interested in joining a committee to help shape the new cell phone policy.
