Amends TCA Title 49.
Tennessee SB0010 aimed to amend the existing discipline policies for local boards of education and charter schools by establishing a wireless communication device policy for the 2025-2026 school year and beyond. The bill would have prohibited student use of wireless communication devices during instructional time, with exceptions for educational purposes, emergencies, health management, or as outlined in a student's IEP or 504 plan. It also required schools to publish their wireless communication device policies on their websites. The bill ultimately failed to pass.
