relative to bullying and cyberbullying prevention.

HB 131 requires New Hampshire school boards to create and adopt policies governing student cell phone use during school hours. The policy must restrict personal phone use in classrooms without teacher approval, while allowing exceptions when teachers use devices for lessons or when students with disabilities need devices for learning as outlined in their IEP or 504 plan. This bill directly affects all public school districts and students in New Hampshire. It takes effect 60 days after enactment. The legislation does not address bullying prevention, as the title incorrectly states.
