Current device policy restricts instructional-time use

What happened
Policy 09.4261 permits possession but bars instructional-time use except emergencies and teacher-directed or authorized use.
Why it matters to families
Disability-authorized devices are excluded, and confiscated devices are returned only to a parent or guardian. This current policy predates the review window; an older high-school handbook differs on adult-student return.
