Tallassee school board approves cell phone pouches

Cliff Williams / TPI Tallassee City Schools will use a pouch similar to that used by Stanhope Elmore High School to prevent cell phone usage this upcoming school year.

Cell phones will not be visible during the school day any more at Tallassee City Schools.

The Tallassee Board of Education approved use of Yondr pouches, similar to those used at Stanhope Elmore High School, to help with enforcement of a cell policy that has long been on the books for Tallassee schools.
