Wichita Schools Take a Stand on Student Distractions: New Cellphone Policy Restricts Device Use. In a bid to improve academic focus and student safety, the Wichita school district has implemented a strict new policy governing cellphone use during school hours. The "bell-to-bell" restriction, which comes into effect immediately, prohibits students from using their phones from the moment the school day begins until it ends. The move aims to minimize distractions and reduce the risk of cyberbullying, social media addiction, and other negative consequences associated with excessive phone use.
