Garland ISD families, we are two weeks away from the first day of school and are getting ready for the 25-26 school year!
We would like to inform you about a new state law, House Bill 1481, and its implementation across our district. Enacted during the 89th Texas Legislative Session, this law prohibits students from using personal digital communication devices, including cell phones, smartwatches, and personal tablets, during the school day.
Garland ISD already had a strong policy prohibiting cell phone use during class; however, this new law goes further by prohibiting all personal device use for the entire school day, not just during instructional time. This means students will no longer be able to use devices during passing periods, lunch, or other non-instructional times while on campus.
As part of this change, students may no longer bring their own laptops, tablets, or other personal devices to school. All students will use their district-issued device for classroom learning to ensure equity, safety, and compliance with the law.
What counts as a personal communication device?
- Cell phones (smartphones, flip phones)
- Laptops, Tablets, iPads, Smartwatches, Smartglasses
- Earbuds, headphones, radios, or any device capable of calling, texting, recording, or accessing the internet
School-issued devices are NOT considered personal communication devices and will continue to be provided for instructional purposes.
When your child returns to school on Monday, August 11th, use of personal communication devices will be prohibited during the school day on all GISD campuses. This means that students will either need to leave all their communication devices at home or keep them securely stored in their backpacks, powered off, during the school day.

Assistant coaches are the glue.
They teach, support, lead, and grind behind the scenes.
They build culture, develop players, and lift everyone around them.
Celebrate the ones who make great teams possible!
