The Utilize No Phones in Learning to Unleash Growth in Grades and Educate Distraction-free Schools Grant Act of 2025 establishes the UNPLUGGED Schools Grant Program . This program authorizes the Secretary of Education to award grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) to help public schools implement policies restricting student use of personal electronic devices. The primary goal is to foster a distraction-free learning environment by limiting mobile phones, smartwatches, and similar devices during school hours. To be eligible for a grant, an SEA must have a policy in place, developed in coordination with local educational agencies and in consultation with stakeholders, that prohibits student possession or use of personal electronic devices in public schools during school hours. This policy includes specific exceptions for students with health conditions, disabilities, or documented instructional needs for English learners. Grant funds are specifically designated for acquiring secure storage methods , such as lockable lockers or signal-blocking pouches, to safely store these devices. The bill also ensures that schools can maintain communication channels between parents and students for essential matters.
