Bell To Bell Cell Phone Ban
Hi everyone,
Please see the link below regarding the bill on bell-to-bell cell phone ban. Per NYSUT the language of the bill requires consultations with unions and parents. As of now, this is all the information I have. As this unfolds I will keep everyone updated especially as more guidance will sure to be forthcoming (as was the case when COVID guidance kept being updated).
Best,
Mike...

Advancing Together
From scholarship opportunities to parades; from supporting students on the fields, on the stages, and at their desks to greeting them at reunions; from handing out candy on Halloween, to pom-poms at Homecoming... The Carle Place Teachers' Association is dedicated to spreading our spirit throughout the entire community.
Standing Strong
We aid our brothers and sisters in NYSUT statewide, in AFT nationwide, and occasionally fellow educators worldwide, not because we expect them to do the same for us if/when we are need, but because we are Union Strong, proud professionals who are responsible for the future generations.
