Attention NISD Families:

Texas House Bill 1481: New Cell Phone Policy for the 2025–2026 School Year

As the new school year begins on August 13th, Texas House Bill 1481 will go into effect. We want to ensure all students and families are informed about this new state-mandated policy.

What You Need to Know:
Students must have their cell phones turned off and out of sight for the entire school day, which includes class time, transitions, and lunch.  Violations of this policy will result in disciplinary action, as required by state law.

If you need to contact your child during the school day, please call the front office.

Thank you for your partnership in helping us create a focused, distraction-free learning environment for all students!
