Wicomico Schools Ban Personal Devices | Dover News

Wicomico County Public Schools is launching a bold new policy starting September 1: no personal devices allowed during school hours. Phones, smartwatches, earbuds — all must be powered down and stowed away from bell to bell. Only school-issued tech will be permitted, with personal gadgets allowed only before and after school. Superintendent Micah Stauffer says the move is designed to eliminate distractions, boost focus, and foster real classroom collaboration — aiming to return education to its core essentials.
