📣 Attention Kenmare Families & Students!
As we prepare for the new school year, we want to share an important update. Due to House Bill 1160, North Dakota law now requires schools to enforce stricter limits on personal electronic devices during the school day.
📵 What This Means at KPS:
All personal devices must be turned off and turned in at the office, unless approved for online learning.
Devices may not be used during instructional time, including class, lunch, recess, and passing periods.
Exceptions are made for medical needs, IEP/504 plans, or approved academic use.
📄 A student-friendly handout outlining the full policy and consequences is available here:
☎️ If students need to contact home, they may use the office phone or ask to use their own phone with staff permission.
✅ Thank you for helping us uphold this law and policy. As part of this legislation, schools are required to collect data on their impact, so your feedback will be essential when lawmakers review this policy in future sessions.
