Under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015, the definition of a GT student is "Students who give evidence of high achievement capability in areas such as intellectual, creative, artistic, or leadership capacity, or in specific academic fields, and who need services or activities not ordinarily provided by the school in order to fully develop those capabilities."

To support student focus, well-being, and academic achievement, Cleveland ISD is implementing a Distraction-Free Education Policy aligned with House Bill 1481. This new policy limits the use of personal electronic devices during the school day.
What You Need to Know:
🔹 Elementary & Middle School & High School
All personal devices (including cell phones, earbuds, smartwatches, etc.) must be powered off and stored away from the first bell to the last.
🔹 All Campuses:
This policy applies during passing periods, assemblies, and all school activities.
Why It Matters:
The goal is to reduce distractions, enhance emotional wellness, and strengthen student engagement with peers, teachers, and learning.
How Families Can Support:
✅ Talk with your child about staying focused and device-free at school.
✅ Ensure devices are stored in backpacks
✅ To reach your child during the school day, please call the school’s front office.
