As we continue to focus on student success, we want to share an update in regard to student cell phone use. Beginning the 2025-2026 school year, Marshfield campuses will be cell phone free during the school day. This means students are to have their devices turned off, stored in backpacks, and kept out of sight during the school day.
While this policy is in response to Missouri Senate Bill 68, it also reflects Marshfield's ongoing commitment to providing a focused, distraction-free learning environment for all students. Research continues to show that limiting access to cell phones during school hours improves academic performance, reduces social pressures, and supports students' overall well-being.
We understand that communication between families and students is important. If you need to contact your child during the school day, please reach out to the school office. (Please note: the student's security code must be provided in order for office staff to relay messages.)
Thank you for your continued partnership in creating an engaging and supportive environment for all learners. We appreciate your support as we work together to give our students the best opportunity to succeed. For more details, please see the attached flyer. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. 417-859-2120 ext. 0 OR marshfieldr1@mjays.us
