Beginning with the 2025–26 school year, Missouri Senate Bill 68 requires all public schools to limit student use of Electronic Personal Communication Devices (EPCDs) such as phones, earbuds, smartwatches, and similar devices during the school day, from the first bell to dismissal.

At Farmington R-7, we support this change. Research shows that fewer distractions mean stronger learning, better focus, and improved student wellness.

What to Know:
✅ EPCDs will not be allowed during class, lunch, recess, passing periods, or study halls.
✅ Students can use devices during emergencies (with guidance to come).
✅ Parents—call the school if you need to reach your child.
✅ Students in Grades 5–12 will continue to get messages from staff through the Rooms app on their Chromebooks.

More Information To Come!
Building leaders will send letters with more details before school starts.
Please contact our offices with questions. (573) 701-1300

navigating a new statewide policy - Starting August 2025,  Missouri Senate Bill 68 requires all public schools to limit student use of phones, earbuds, smartwatches, and other personal electronic devices (EPCDs) during the school day.
What's Changing At Farmington R-7 - From the first bell to dismissal, EPCDs may not be used or displayed during:  ✔ Class time  ✔ Hallways & passing periods  ✔ Study halls  ✔ Lunch & recess We support this change because fewer distractions = more learning.
How To Stay Connected - Communication still matters!  📞 Parents: Call the school office if you need to reach your student.  💻 Grades 5–12: Teachers/coaches can message students via the Rooms app on Chromebooks.  🚨 Emergencies: Students can use their phones when safety is at risk—more guidance coming soon.
Why This Matters - Removing EPCDs during the school day helps:  ✔ Boost academic performance by up to 6%  ✔ Reduce anxiety and distractions  ✔ Improve face-to-face social interactions
Our Commitment - More information will come to families from building leaders. Together, we’re creating focused, safe, and connected schools—free from digital distractions.
