As a result of the 89th Texas Legislative session, House Bill 1481 was passed and signed into law this summer. This means that all public school students in Texas, including RCISD students, will be expected to store their cell phones securely out of sight during school hours. Specifically, the law states, “a student is prohibited from using a personal communication device while on school property during the school day.”

Students will be allowed to use their cell phones before and after school; they may not have their phones in use or visible after the first bell, and before the last bell of the day.


As we navigate the implementation of this recently passed legislation (HB 1481) we would like to thank our parents for your continued partnership. We encourage you to talk to your students in the coming weeks as summer winds down, so they are better prepared to be without their communication device during the school day. Thank you for your support!


Be sure to complete your Intent to Return forms in Family Access so that we have your most updated contact information.



Como resultado de la 89a sesión legislativa de Texas, el proyecto de ley 1481 fue aprobado y promulgado este verano. Esto significa que se espera que todos los estudiantes de escuelas públicas en Texas, incluso los estudiantes del Distrito Escolar Independiente de Royse City, guarden sus teléfonos celulares de manera segura fuera de la vista durante el horario escolar. Específicamente, la ley establece que "a un estudiante se le prohíbe usar un dispositivo de comunicación personal mientras está en propiedad escolar durante el día escolar."

Se les permitirá a los estudiantes usar sus teléfonos celulares antes y después de la escuela; es posible que no tengan sus teléfonos en uso o visibles después de la primera campana, y antes de la última campana del día.

A medida que avanzamos en la implementación de esta ley recientemente aprobada (HB 1481) nos gustaría agradecer a nuestros padres por su continua asociación. Le animamos a que hable con sus estudiantes en las próximas semanas conforme el verano se termina, para que estén mejor preparados para estar sin su dispositivo de comunicación durante el día escolar. ¡Gracias por tu apoyo!

Asegúrese de completar sus formularios de intención de devolución en Acceso Familiar para que tengamos su información de contacto más actualizada.
