Based on input provided from schools across the District, including ours, Greenville County Schools has updated the Administrative Rule JCDA with the goal of creating a more consistent practice regarding the use of personal electronic devices during the school day. Beginning January 4, 2024, personal electronic devices cannot be used by high school students in classrooms during the instructional day. All personal devices must remain out of sight of others during this time. Students may use personal electronic devices during class changes, lunch, and other times outside of the classroom during the instructional day unless directed differently by the principal or principal’s designee. The instructional day for high schools has been defined as 8:45 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. The instructional school day for other special centers shall be determined by the location administrator in accordance with the instructional activities of that facility. Students not adhering to this policy could face disciplinary action in accordance with Board Policy JCDA.
