Common use of Cellular Phones Clause in Contracts

Cellular Phones. Teachers in the Birth to Three program that interact with students or their families off of school property as a regular part of their duties shall be provided a cellular telephone for use, at no cost to the teacher, in emergency situations and for other legitimate professional needs. Cellular phones provided should have the capability to send and receive text messages and to access district mandated calendar or scheduling technology. Other teachers who interact with students or their families off of school property as a regular part of their duties may request a district cellular telephone. Such request shall be granted at the discretion of the school/program administrator. Participation in regular classroom field trips or the voluntary teacher home visit program do not, by themselves, entitle a teacher to a district cellular telephone.
