An Act relating to wireless telecommunications devices in public schools; and providing for an effective date.

SB 18 requires Alaska public schools to adopt policies banning student use of personal wireless devices (like phones) during all regular school hours, including lunch and passing periods, with exceptions only for emergencies. School districts must implement either a state-developed model policy or their own policy, and share it with parents, students, and school staff. The bill defines "wireless telecommunications devices" as any portable device capable of voice, messaging, or data communication. It takes effect July 1, 2025.
