SECTION 32290



32290.  The partnership shall discuss with providers of telephone
equipment and services, and shall acquire information regarding, the
availability of no-cost or reduced-cost cellular telephones and
services to be provided on a statewide basis to each public school
teacher for use as a classroom safety device. Although the primary
purpose of providing the cellular telephones is school safety, a
teacher receiving a cellular telephone as a result of these
discussions, shall be encouraged to use the cellular telephone for
school related purposes other than school safety. These purposes
would include purposes that further the smooth administration of
general classroom and school functions, including, but not limited
to, communicating with parents about a pupil's education,
communication with pupils about classwork and homework assignments,
and communicating with other teachers and school administrators about
school operations generally. Thus, the discussions between the
partnership and the providers shall include the availability of
no-cost or reduced-cost services in consideration of the complete
usage contemplated pursuant to this section. The partnership shall
ensure that each school district, county office of education,
schoolsite council, and school safety planning committee developing a
school safety plan pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section
32280) is provided with information regarding the availability of the
no-cost or reduced-cost cellular telephones and services for
consideration in developing its plan.
