As we prepare for the upcoming school year, USD 388 is implementing updated personal electronic device procedures at both Ellis High School and Washington Grade School to comply with recently enacted Kansas state law.

We understand that any change to established routines can bring questions or concerns, and we appreciate everyone's patience and support as we implement these new procedures. By working together, we can meet state requirements while fostering classrooms where students are fully engaged in learning and free from unnecessary distractions. Complete personal electronic device policies can be found in the student handbooks linked on the school website.
