Petycja skierowana jest do: Ohio General Assembly
We, the undersigned, strongly oppose the new phone policy recently implemented by The Ohio Lawmakers. This policy, which significantly restricts the use of personal devices during school hours, fails to consider the legitimate needs of student and staff for communication, learning and safety. Our primary concerns include:
- Safety/communication: restricting phone use limits our ability to quickly contact family members, particularly in emergencies. This policy creates unnecessary barriers to maintaining essential communication
- Learning and accessibility: Many students and staff rely on their phones as essential tools for learning, including accessing educational resources, managing schedules and organizing assignments
- Personal Freedom and Trust: The policy undermines trust between students, staff and administration by assuming misuse of devices. We believe in a more balanced approach that respects our ability to manage our responsibilities while using our phones responsibly
We Respectfully Request that Central Crossing and the Ohio Lawmakers reconsider and revise the policy to better align with the needs and concerns of all stakeholders.
