Radio Chatskill

As schools across the Catskills and the Hudson Valley gear up for another school year, one question is on the minds of students, parents and teachers: what is the policy on cellphone use?

New York Governor Kathy Hochul says particulars of a potential state ban on cell phones in schools should become clearer later this month.  

As Ellen Abbott with the New York Public News Network reports, the Governor is waiting for a summit on cell phones in schools September 20th, before announcing her intentions on the issue.
