  • PCSD's New Cell Phone Policy: Learn More

    In accordance with New York State requirements, Pawling Central School District will be implementing a new policy limiting student access to cell phones and smart devices during school hours. This change is designed to help students stay focused, reduce distractions and make the most of their learning time. The policy will apply to all students (with limited exceptions for documented medical needs or specific accommodations).

    We understand that changes like this work best when we navigate them together. Families and students will have several opportunities to learn more and ask questions at upcoming events:
